This is a graduate level “essay” exam, and I will be looking for well supported views, and critical thought. Make sure to include in-text citations and references in APA Style 7th edition. As always, opinion alone is not enough.Responses should be at least 500 words each (not counting sources and references) and each should have at least 2 different sources properly cited in accordance with APA.Again, content and critical thought are key here, but graduate level writing ability and meeting minimum requirements for length and sources are also included in the overall grade.Each of the 4 questions is worth 25 points (exam is worth 30% of your final grade in this course). Points will be given based on the exam essay rubric in the syllabus.
1. Provide an overview of a domestic or Transnational organized criminal organization other than the Mafia analyzing the type of criminal activity in which they are engaged and then judging its success.
2. Assess what if any impact the growth of the Internet has had on organized crime during the past 2 decades.
3. Analyze why methamphetamine has proven to be a profitable drug for Mexican organized crime. Conclude your response by including (and justifying) a number of steps you believe Mexican and U.S. lawmakers must take if the production of this drug is to be curbed.
4. Interpret how the onset of the Great Depression (i.e., in the U.S.) and the end of Prohibition affected organized crime?
