关于非洲有组织犯罪的现有研究大多从国家和安全的角度强调其发展和扩散。这类研究往往依赖夸大的事实来吸引公众的注意力,受到耸人听闻的媒体报道的推动,并从概念上得出结论,这些概念对非法活动的重要性,无论是对国家还是对它们在促进和维持人民生计方面的作用,都没有一个完整的描述。与此相反,这一特刊提出,需要更多的实证研究和分析,以揭示国家和当地的看法之间的脱节。更多地注意从下而上的角度看待非法活动,可以表明,如何通过法律的/非法的二元术语来界定和理解这些做法,并不一定表明从事这些活动的人如何看待这些做法。通过汇集来自不同学科、理论和实证角度的一系列贡献,本期特刊探索了官方的、政策驱动的犯罪叙述与这些做法的日常性质的现实之间的空间,以期重新思考和挑战这些活动越来越多地通过“有组织犯罪”的透镜来框架。
Much of the existing research on organized crime in Africa has emphasised its development and proliferation from state and security perspectives. Such research often relies upon inflated facts for captivating public attention, is fuelled by sensationalist media reports and draws from conceptualisations that give an incomplete picture of the significance of illicit activities, both for the state and their role in enabling and sustaining people’s livelihoods. In contrast, this special issue proposes that more empirical research and analysis is needed to reveal the disjunctures between state and on-the-ground perceptions. Greater attention to a bottom-up vision of illicit activities can demonstrate how defining and understanding these practices through such binary terms as legal/illegal does not necessarily indicate how those engaged in them perceive them. Through bringing together a range of contributions from different disciplinary, theoretical and empirical perspectives, this special issue explores the space between official, policy-driven narratives of crime and the realities of the everyday nature of these practices, in a bid to rethink and challenge the ‘organized crime’ lens through which these activities are increasingly framed.
