 | Suburban Gangs by Dan Korem, Jon Racherbaumer
For the first time in American history, gangs are forming in rising numbers in suburban & affluent communities across the U.S. Most falsely assumed this was due to the expansion of inner-city gangs. In fact, since the late 1980s, affluent youths have been forming their own gangs without inner-city gang influence. SUBURBAN GANGS - THE AFFLUENT REBELS is the first comprehensive book that answers why this dangerous trend has occurred & what can be done about it. Author Dan Korem, an investigative journalist & internationally recognized gang expert who has lectured at the FBI National Academy, invested six years of research in eleven countries to get the real answers. Korem also watched gangs form in his Dallas suburb & affect his own three children. Laced with riveting accounts & lucidly written for both layman & professionals, SUBURBAN GANGS is the only book that identifies the following critical information: * The only proven strategy that will stop gangs from forming in both affluent & inner-city communities (Korem used this strategy with over 400 inner-city youths & not one joined a gang in six years). * The one factor, above all others, that puts a youth at risk of gang involvement. * The profile of an affluent gang member. * The types of gangs found in affluent communities & their activities. * The 11 reasons why youths disengage from gangs. * One of the first surveys of a skinhead gang. * European parallels that foreshadow affluent gang trends in the U.S. * Unique pictorial that shows how & why youth gang cultures in the U.S. & Europe now influence each other for the first time in modern history. Recommended strongly for professionals, academics, & the general public. --LIBRARY JOURNAL, March 1995 STAR REVIEW. AUTHOR: Dan Korem, Jon Racherbaumer
