Beschreibungen
<p>Comprehensively laying out the concept of <i>crimilegality</i>, this book presents a novel perspective on the relationship between what is conventionally termed organised crime and political order in the contemporary developing world. In hybrid <i>crimilegal</i> orders the moral, normative and social boundaries between legality and illegality-criminality are blurred, and through the violation of the official law, the illegal-criminal sphere of social life becomes legitimate and morally acceptable, while the legal turns illegitimate and immoral. Several examples of <i>crimilegality </i>and <i>crimilegal</i> governance in Colombia and Nigeria, including in relation to armed conflict termination, are used to illustrate these complex processes.</p>
