<div>Street gangs have exploded in popularity worldwide. Tattoos, baggy pants, tagging, gangsta style clothes — this unspoken threat is always just around the corner in most of the world's major cities. In search of a sense of identity and belonging that their world has denied them, young people are pushed into gangs by a witch’s brew of violence, guns, drugs, racism, poverty, families under pressure, and ever-widening slums. <i>Gangs</i> exposes the roots of the problem, from the bidonvilles of France to the favelas of Brazil.

Most of all, it shows that we fail to understand gangs at our peril.</div>
