- This is a monograph of 255 pages which explores the current debate about UK street gangs termed the 'UK Gang Thesis' debate. It argues that policy formations in the uK aimed at addressing street gangs preceding and succeeding the English riot of 2011 have encompassed positions of both gang denial and gang blame.
