How do Norway prisons deal with formation of gangs, which are essentially small businesses that seek to "disrupt" the prison economy?
>“In Norway, people very much disapprove of inequalities that are due to bad luck,” Bertil Tungodden, a professor at the Norwegian School of Economics, and one of the paper’s authors, told me. “People in the U.S. are more willing to accept inequality, even if it reflects pure good luck for some and pure bad luck for others.”
Less of a problem because inequality is lower, and fewer people feel the need to join gangs for protection/to get by. Of course, it's also more homogeneous.

In other words, why isn't MS13 infiltrating Norway, if there's no competition for their illegal activities?
In the United States, for instance, there's a huge market for gang formation, and gangs thrive despite constant fighting for territory.

I never claimed immigrants are somehow intrinsically more disposed to crime. In fact, the report doesn't make that claim either. It shows that crime rates vary greatly based on where immigrants/refugees come from.
It's not simple, there are many causes of such a effect. But offering free education and other opportunities that are substantially better than crimes is a good guess.
