Imagining a “Marxist-Leninist” approach to organised crime
• Lenin: get Pyatakov to infiltrate it, then wait for turf wars and the opportunity to take over a group
• Mao: treat them as potential allies: Chingkangshan bandits and the He Long and Elder Brother Society
• But Gramsci; all this Leninist stuff only works in “the East” where “civil society” weak. In West, need long march through the institutions
• My earlier article concluded orgcrim policy should aim to strengthen civsoc: bottom-up not top-down

Organised crime
• A state within a state?
• A shadow economy?
• Networks of individuals with one foot in the legal and the other in the illcit?
• “Uncivil” or “unruly” civil society?

Neoliberal governance doctrine
• Role of state to be facilitator and enabler of private sector
• Market forces should be left free to create efficient distribution of goods and services
• Robust civil society will take over many state roles without burdensome bureaucracy
• Civ soc self-regulatory and democratic• This true globally as well as nationally• Rule of law just seems to appear somehow

Civil society: one or many?
• We talk about different types of state, different types of economy, but different types of civil society?
• A single national civil society or a multitude of different ones in cities or provinces…
• This is not same as culture!
• Global civil society?

Types of civil society?
• Do you either have or not have civil society?
• Is it better to talk about the individual relationships of civ soc instits with state
• If so, are there not different relationships between organised crime and the state
• And differing relationships between orgcrim and the rest of civ soc?

Milton Friedman changed his tune
• Establishing the rule of law is more basic than privatization
• In fact in some countries privatization without the rule of law is just stealing
• Bit late dear boy
• Shock therapy in eastern Europe was a gift to organised crime

Insiders or outsiders
• Is organised crime to be considered outside civil society
• Or as a component of civil society?
• And as a presure/interest group
• Is it an insider or an outsider in Wyn Grant terms?

Global civil society
• Gambetta analysis relevant• No global institutions of contract
enforcement• US instits tend to dominate• How do you enforce payment or quality
from US supplier if you arent US-based?• How do crime groups enforce cross-border
payments and quality of illegal goods and services?

Global civil society
• “Organised crime” as driver of globalisation
• Can organised crime substitute itself for global civil society as it has in some parts of post-Communist civil society
• And in the shanty towns of Latina America
• And in the “no-go” areas of Western industrial cities
