本文重点关注治理型有组织犯罪（OC）。首先，它依靠广泛的定性数据探讨了索尔福德（大曼彻斯特）和德比郡的两个非法治理案例。接下来，它提出了一种衡量治理型 OC 强度的新颖工具，即“非法治理（i-Gov）指数”。然后，该工具被纳入我们与德比郡警察局进行的一项调查中。这是英国首次系统地尝试衡量此类犯罪。文章表明，英国存在 OC 的治理维度，尽管其复杂程度和发展程度各不相同。虽然相对罕见，但这种形式的 OC 是有害的，并且对社区具有高度破坏性。因此，本文呼吁基于 i-Gov 指数对英国各地的此类现象进行系统评估。
This article focuses on governance-type organized crime (OC). First, it explores two cases of illegal governance in Salford (Greater Manchester) and Derbyshire by relying on a wide range of qualitative data. Next, it presents a novel instrument measuring the strength of governance-type OC, the 'Illegal Governance (i-Gov) Index'. This instrument is then included in a survey we conducted with Derbyshire Constabulary. This is the first systematic attempt to measure such crime in the United Kingdom. The article shows that the governance dimension of OC is present in the United Kingdom, although with varying degrees of sophistication and development. While comparatively rare, this form of OC is pernicious and highly destructive of communities. This article therefore calls for a systematic evaluation of such phenomenon across the United Kingdom, based on the i-Gov Index.
