43. Alcohol and Violence in the Lives of Gang Members
- www.niaaa.nih.gov
- Alcohol and Violence in the Lives of Gang Members.
- Life within a gang includes two endemic features: violence and alcohol. Yet, to date, most researchers studying gang behavior have focused on violence and its relationship to illicit drugs, largely neglecting the importance of alcohol in gang life. Because alcohol is an integral and regular part of socializing within gang life, drinking works as a social lubricant, or social glue, to maintain not only the cohesion and social solidarity of the gang, but also to affirm masculinity and male togetherness. In addition to its role as a cohesive mechanism, particular drinking styles within gangs may operate, as with other social groups, as a mechanism to maintain group boundaries, thereby demarcating one gang from another. Other examples of internal gang violent activities associated with drinking include fighting between members because of rivalries, tensions, or notions of honor or respect. At a more symbolic level, drinking is associated with two important ritual events in gang life: initiation, or jumping in,and funerals. ... KEY WORDS: AODR (alcohol or other drug AOD related) violence; gang; youth culture; juvenile delinquency; AOD use as a form of socializing; gender identity; male; group behavior; peer pressure; attitude toward AOD .
- Gang researchers began to argue that a new type of youth gang had developed which was qualitatively different from gangs in earlier periods. The new type of gang possessed a raison detre no longer based on cultural factors, such as attachment to a neighborhood, and notions of individual as well as collective honor, but, instead, centered on the economic rationale of profit making (Goldstein 1989; Skolnick et al. ...
- This is in spite of the fact, as Fagan (1993) has noted, that alcohol is still the most widely used substance by both gang and nongang youth. This absence of research on the role of alcohol within gang life is particularly striking in the available work on the violent behavior of gang members. ...
- Currently, more than 90 percent of the Nations largest cities report youth gang problems, and police estimates now put the number of gangs at 28,700 and the number of gang members at approximately 780,200 (OJJDP 2000b). As a result, public concern about the involvement of young people in gang activity, and the perceived violence associated with this lifestyle, has soared. ...
- Violence is endemic to gang life. ... Violence within gang life includes both intragang violence--for example, ritualistically violent initiations (Vigil and Long 1990)--and intergang violence--for example, turf battles (Sanchez-Jankowski 1991). ... This preoccupation with gangs and drug-related violence has tended to overshadow the significant role of alcohol in gang life and its possible relationship with violent behavior. ...
