Description

Explore the complex reality of organized crime in this scholarly study from the Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia series. As the triads have gained recognition as a sophisticated and international criminal force, many have questioned the extent of their influence. This book provides a deep investigation into the truth behind the myths surrounding these societies. Focusing on Hong Kong, which is widely considered the headquarters for triad societies globally, Yiu Kong Chu examines the historical origins and operational methods of these groups. The text looks at how they conduct organized extortion from both large and small legitimate businesses. Additionally, the study tracks their evolution and recent shifts into illegal activities such as drug trafficking. This book serves as a vital resource for those studying the intersection of business, crime, and Asian history.
