  • Product Description

    Gangs mirror their communities--but is the community a concrete space, for instance a neighborhood, or is it a collective identity? This volume addresses these questions from an eclectic range of positions. The product of a landmark conference on gangs, the book brings together the work of academics, activists, and community leaders to examines gang organizations. Analyzing the spread of gangs from New York to Texas to the West Coast, the book covers such topics as the spirituality of gangs, women in gangs, the relationship between gangs and education and gangs and federally funded programs for at-risk youth. Included is a photographic essay by Donna DeCesare, an award-winning journalist.
