The whole thing strikes me as appropriate to general US political analysis: substitute corporate for gang and you are here:
“We draw a few lessons from this. A big one is that gangs and gang rule don’t emerge from state weakness. They can emerge from state strength. After all, the state is what makes something illegal, creates a space for gang profits. And the state compels gangs to seek loyalty.”
“Another is that these illicit economies and criminal rents are the big driver of gang strength. If you try to tackle something like gang rule without tackling rents, you can expect unexpected consequences.”
