| Summary: | 碩士 === 中央警察大學 === 外事警察研究所 === 105 === This study is based on the research of organized crime between Taiwan and Japan. At first, three parts of the organized crime are discussed and compared, including their structures, sources of revenue, and how they collaborate with other criminal organizations for profit. Second, discussing and comparing the strategies against organized crime in these two countries. This research attempts to give some useful suggestions to Taiwan’s law enforcement authority in the future.
After comparing Taiwan and Japan’s organized crime, we can find that their development contexts are mostly similar, but still exhibit several differences that merit further discussion. Regarding strategies implemented by the Taiwanese government against organized crime, punitive polices for such offenders are insufficient. In terms of policy execution, a platform specific for managing information on organized crime is lacking. Without long-term, continual analysis has been conducted on organized crime, and cooperation among relevant authorities is inadequate. Prevention of organized crime mostly relies on short-term programs managed by the police, and the effectiveness of such prevention measures is mainly depended on the performance of the police. Compared with Japan where citizens cooperate with the government to fight against organized crime, such private–public cooperation is rare in Taiwan.
In summary, Taiwan can refer to crime prevention measures in Japan and establish a platform for compiling information on organized crime, thereby be actively informed of local crime organizations, and the amendment of ‘’Organized Crime Prevention Act’’ is necessary. Last but not least, Crime prevention should not rely solely on governments, but should also integrate the resources of the private sector and citizens to create an environment that impedes the development and profitability of criminal organizations.
