ON DEMAND VIEWING – Aotearoa: A Gangster’s Paradise?

Drugs, dark money, gangs, white-collar crooks and guns lurk in the grimy underbelly and daily life of New Zealand society. Two recent gripping books delve into this dark reality: Gangster’s Paradise by investigative journalist Jared Savage explores the escalation of criminal enterprise and how New Zealand is fast becoming a gangster’s paradise, and political journalist Benedict Collins’ Mad on Meth asks how ‘tough on crime’ became ‘dumb on drugs’. They join Dr Jarrod Gilbert in conversation.
