The growth of ICOs depend on 6 characteristics of the global community
|
Economics of production
Small farmers are struggling to survive in developing nations and especially in developed nations Farmers when faced with a decision to grow a crop that will generate numerous times the revenue of another crop will choose to make more money; farmers will maximize their yield by growing illegal substances or substances used in the manufacturing of illegal substances Allows for the expansion of drugs into previously untouched areas Illegal crops are grown where nobody is looking for them, which would be places that are not commonly associated with the culture International Ungovernability Globalization means that legal corporations now exist outside the control of a single country and it is no different for ICOs Who is responsible for managing them? What happens when the laws of two areas the ICO operates in conflict? Closest organization available with this type of power is the UN Not interested in ICOs, only nation to nation interaction Border Porosity Freedom to pass from one country to another with little resistance means that a criminal can commit and act and be out of harms way with virtually no challenge Immigration Streams ICOs exploit newly arrived ethnics; pretend to serve the immigrants while exploiting them Police do not provide the same support for recent immigrants and illegal immigrants are unwilling to report any wrongdoing for fear of deportment Trends is Technology New forms of technology allows for the transfer of money and instantaneous communication across the world GPS allow for the use of extremely rural paths that are unpatrollable by traditional means Relative disorganization of law enforcement One country’s attempt to break an ICO cannot be successful as ICOs always have a different country or area in which they are already operating Only by cooperating and sharing information can a successful plan be implemented State Crime The most organized and sophisticated type of crime Illegal of socially injurious acts committed for the benefit of a state or its agencies, not for personal gain or some individual or agent of the state |

Selling the chance to be financially secure
Told that they were beautiful and that men wanted them “…Literally sitting on a gold mine” Provide a life structure Make the ho set goals and then attain them Never with her own money, always through the pimp Provide a sense of belonging, family, and adventure Is this really any different that why we go to college? |

rules of interaction |
Stabled prostitutes are not permitted to look an opposing pimp in the eye
If she does and is seen talking to an opposing pimp she is termed to be “out of pockets” Out of pockets – A ho who is putting the pimps money in peril Being Broke – Physically reprimanding a prostitute who is out of pocket; Can also be broke by the opposing pimp and have her money stolen |
|
|
Choosing Up
|
A prostitute is free to switch pimps if she feels it necessary
Will likely be “broke” for her decision to leave but opposing pimp will face no repercussions Proper etiquette to leave all clothes and jewelry used for “hoeing” purchased by the pimp; also must provide the pimp with a leaving “gift” of money |
|
|
Relationships between Pimp and Prostitute
|
More often than not a prostitute reported being infatuated with her pimp
This is done by providing happiness and maintaining a dark mystery about him Provide the money and family they need Also be able to turn off the warmness and physically harm at a moments notice; essentially creating a battered woman syndrome in each worker |
|
|
Physical Control of Women
|
Most often unpredictable
Most common form of violence is a reprimand that occurs directly after a violation of the rules Leaving the “ho walk” before meeting quota Holding back money from the pimp Used violence to discourage free lance work and to discourage free lance prostitutes from invading his territory |
|
|
Emotional Control of Women
|
Success is dependent upon arousing fear and love in the stable
By giving love to multiple prostitutes he increases the longing to be the sole object of affection and fear she may lose it Also increases the chance for jealousy and inter-stable problems Relationship based on a perverse trust Prostitutes frame off abuse and only pay attention to the feelings of security |
|
|
Leaving the life
|
A prostitute is on her own to leave the lifestyle
No legal protection will be given as they are outlaws themselves Pimps will actively seek and “repossess” a ho Letting them go would be a sign of weakness and slipping game ability Must essentially pick up and leave with no possessions |
|
|
The Social Construction of Masculinity within the fraternity
|
They work hard to create a macho image and context and try to avoid any suggestion of “wimpishness, effeminacy, and homosexuality.
Valued members display, or are willing to go along with, a narrow conception of masculinity that stresses competition, athleticism, dominance, winning, conflict, wealth, material possessions, willingness to drink alcohol, and sexual prowess via woman. |
|
|
Create façade of extreme masculinity by selective membership
|
Fraternity members indicate they want certain characteristics in pledges
Avoid “geeks” Want “some big guys, very athletic”, “who can talk college sports”, “who can hold their liquor”; traditionally masculine stereotypes Physical Appearance Must be socially acceptable and aesthetically pleasing; “the top fraternities have the best looking guys” Skills Sets “have the ability to relate to girls”. “…we want guys who can relate to girls” Socioeconomic Status Must be wealthy and come from a good family “They were good-looking, a big fraternity, had lots of BMWs” University officials description of a fraternity implicated in a gang rape |

|
Pledge process involves teaching and evaluating masculinity characteristics
Distillation process works... |
Those who are less masculine drop out of the pledging process leaving a distilled group of concentrated masculinity
Includes distorted and perverted ideas about femininity Emphasis on toughness de-emphasizes caring and sensitivity but fosters intragroup loyalty and trust |
|
|
Maintaining Loyalty
Brotherhood |
Relationship between fraternity members
An androspecific term Status achieved at the end of pledging Provides a goal for the pledges to strive for Once achieved will not give up Idealized in the minds of fraternity members “Friendship and a bond for life…” |
|
|
Practices of Brotherhood
|
Four different aspects of fraternity lifestyle make the “brothers” more likely to coerce women into sexual acts
Loyalty, group protection, and secrecy Alcohol as a weapon Violence and physical force Competition and Superiority |
|
|
Practices of Brotherhood
Loyalty, Group Protection, and Secrecy |
The highest order of the fraternity is to protect the fraternity
“The first rule of fight club is that we do not talk about fight club” Protection to the organization is created by the protection of each individual member Secrecy and protection allow for an individual or group of individuals to commit a deviant act and know they have an alibi and support cast Allows for rape to be committed with little fear of repercussions Research shows that individuals are aware of right and wrong but the guiding principles of the fraternity overpower these ideas |
|
|
Practices of Brotherhood
Alcohol as a Weapon |
The use of alcohol to gain sex is pervasive in frats
Unique to frats? Especially desirable to have sex with a “prim and proper” sorority girl Planned to feed spiked drinks to the “uptight” sorority in order to have sex with them Telling that one frat member said that gang rapes were wrong but did not think that one on one interaction was wrong with relation to alcohol |
|
|
Practices of Brotherhood
Violence and Physical Force |
Fraternities have a history of using violence in every day life
Allegations of violent hazing and parties Fraternities “are the third riskiest property to insure behind toxic waste dumps and amusement parks” Traditional use of violence and physical force with little repercussion leads to a likely rape |
|
|
Practices of Brotherhood
|
Interfraternity rivalry fosters in-group identification and out-group hostility
Fraternities gain prestige and pride over being the best Competition is particularly fierce over women |
