Scholars often compare China and Western societies in terms of dichotomous forms of control—formal and informal. Recent research indicates a nuanced form of social control—semiformal. Using a survey data collected during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic in China, this study investigated the prevalence and importance of semiformal organizations, formal organizations, and informal groups participating in social control and social service and the predictors of the perceived importance of these three forms of social control mechanisms. Findings from this study revealed that formal organizations, the semiformal organizations, and informal groups all participated in community control and service. Semiformal organizations had the highest level of participation. This study found that education and age are the two major predictors of the views on the importance of formal, informal, and semiformal control and control mechanisms.

Budaya oyabun-kobun yang diterapkan yakuza juga merupakan produk dari paham ini.…”

(Title: Informal and Formal Controls Against Yakuza in Japan) This research explores how far yakuza's development in Japan and to find social factors which affecting its change. The methods used are literary research. This paper discusses the implementation of formal and informal social control in Japanese society and its ties to yakuza. The fact that yakuza, as Japanese mafia, have been intervening its society for decades, is a strange phenomenon since Japan is known for its low crimes as portrayed on most of the media. The formal control section will be focused on the National Police Agency of Japan, while the informal control section will be focused on Japanese society, emphasizing on its culture. Both controls leave the door open for yakuza to establish power in society. This may lead to the conclusion that Japan’s social control is relatively weak.

“…Tahap pegangan agama yang tinggi (Obasola, 2013) dan diikuti kepercayaan terhadap badan penguatkuasa undang-undang (Costello & Vowell, 1999) dijangka meningkatkan nilai integriti golongan muda, di mana tahap pengabaian aktiviti tidak berintegriti adalah tinggi. Bagi tujuan ini dimensi kepercayaan diukur dari segi amalan aktiviti keagamaan (Abou-Youssef et al, 2011), penglibatan kesukarelawanan terhadap aktiviti keagamaan (Metzger et al, 2011) dan menyokong serta menyertai aktiviti anjuran badan penguatkuasa undang-undang (Jiang et al, 2014).…”

Kawalan sosial tidak formal merupakan kaedah pengukuhan nilai integriti yang berkesan mengekang salah laku golongan muda. Kajian empirikal kawalan sosial tidak formal kurang diberi perhatian pengkaji sains sosial dan kemanusiaan kerana kaedah ini dilaporkan mengambil masa yang lama bagi mengukuhkan nilai integriti berbanding kawalan sosial formal. Namun, pelaksanaan kawalan sosial tidak formal disahkan bukan sahaja mengurangkan kos sistem keselamatan sosial malah membentuk peribadi golongan muda yang berintegriti. Justeru, kajian ini memberi tumpuan dalam menilai skala psikometrik kawalan sosial dan pengukuhan nilai integriti golongan muda. Bagi menguji nilai integriti, Teori Kawalan Sosial Tidak Formal diuji ke atas 400 mahasiswa negeri Melaka dari empat
