- Arenas of Drug Transactions: Adolescent Cannabis Transactions in England-Social Supply
The issue of the social supply of illicit drugs is an important one because it delineates a separate category of "dealing," whereby friends supply or facilitate supply to other friends. Supply of this nature has been argued to be sufficiently different to "dealing proper" to justify a different criminal justice approach in relation to it. This has been argued to be particularly true regarding social supply among young people who use substances such as cannabis. This research involved interviews with 192 cannabis users in six (three rural, three urban) locations in England. Most were exclusively cannabis users. Nearly half (45%) had been involved in some form of supply, and 78% reported sharing their cannabis with others. Nearly all supply events were between friends within a close age r...

- The Hidden Enterprise Culture: Entrepreneurs in the Underground Economy in England, Ukraine, and Russia
In recent decades, the field of entrepreneurship studies has become increasingly permeated by a virtuous ideal-type depiction of entrepreneurs as wholesome and legitimate heroes. This paper evaluates critically this predominant portrayal of entrepreneurs as always conducting their business affairs wholly by the rulebook. To do this, the objective is to assess whether it is common for entrepreneurs to conduct some or all of their transactions on an off-the-books basis in the underground economy. Reporting case study evidence from face-to-face interviews with 91 entrepreneurs in England, 331 in Ukraine and 81 in Russia, the finding is that 77 per cent, 90 per cent and 100 per cent of these entrepreneurs respectively assert that they participate in underground transactions. The outcome is ...
