Street gangs have existed in Glasgow for decades, with knife crime becoming a defining feature of the city. Over a decade since Deuchars original fieldwork, this book explores the transitional experiences of some of the young men he worked with, as well as the experiences of today's young people and the practitioners who work to support them. Through empirical data, policy analysis, and contemporary insights, this dynamic book explores the evolving nature of gangs and the contemporary challenges affecting young people, including drug distribution, football-related bigotry, and the mental health repercussions emerging from social media.
