Abstract
This research paper is a brief history of Chicago and violent crime. From
the time of mobsters running Chicago to it being labeled “Chiraq” because
more Americans were killed in Chicago than in Iraq during the War on
Terrorism, violent crime has been part of Chicago. In the past 30 years
Chicago has seen its highest rates of violent crimes with the peak being it
now being labeled “Chiraq”. Yet only a few years of new and collective
strategies by many different organizations that aim to stop this violence
have caused Chicago to have one of its lowest crime rates in nearly 60
years.
