Summary/Abstract: Group criminality involving young people is a significant issue rooted in history, evolving from survival needs to modern objectives like financial gain, ideological influence, and social control. Key factors driving youth involvement include poverty, lack of education, dysfunctional families, and media glorification of criminal lifestyles. Criminal groups exploit these vulnerabilities, offering financial incentives and a sense of belonging. Technology, such as encrypted communication and the dark web has further enabled these groups to operate globally and evade law enforcement. Effective strategies to counteract this phenomenon include strengthening the rule of law, improving education and social support, fostering community involvement, and raising awareness about the consequences of group criminality. Preventing victimization and reintegrating youth are essential for long-term solutions and collaborative efforts are vital to disrupt criminal networks and mitigate their societal impact.
