Johan Leman is Emeritus Professor in Social and Cultural Anthropology at the Faculty of Social Sciences at KU Leuven, Belgium. Stef Janssens is an analyst of human trafficking and the smuggling of migrants. He has acted as an advisor to Belgian parliamentary commissions on organized crime and trafficking and to the US Embassy in Belgium. He is currently an associate member of the Leuven Institute of Criminology, KU Leuven, Belgium.

"The authors concentrate on the cultural background of criminal networks and how their traditions affect their activities, as well as incorporating analysis of their entrepreneurial endeavours. ... Leman and Janssens set out to examine leadership and entrepreneurial practices commonplace in criminal networks, and essentially provide a business-centred analysis of these networks' activities. ... This book is thoroughly recommendable for researchers wishing to gain insight into the activities of criminal networks." (Fiona Loeffel, Slovo, Vol. 28 (1), Winter, 2016)
