Focusing on the transformative power of religion and spirituality, this book delves into how these elements aid male gang members and offenders in distancing themselves from criminal lifestyles. Through in-depth interviews across the USA, Scotland, Denmark, and Hong Kong, it highlights personal testimonials from gang members, mentors, and spiritual leaders. The author uncovers how faith can foster new social connections and coping strategies, offering critical insights for scholars, students, and practitioners involved in gang culture and masculinity studies.
