Prohibition didn't so much promulgate the practice of forming criminal organizations as it gave criminal organizations a huge boost in revenue and thereby making it more important to those in charge of these organizations to "protect their investments". Organized crime existed before Prohibition as it still exists after.

Prohibition, the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution, outlawed the production, transportation and consumption of alcoholic beverages. Because of Prohibition, people who were able to produce and ship illegal supplies of alcoholic beverages (in a practice known as bootlegging) were able to make massive profits. Al Capone was a highly successful bootlegger, and much of his criminal empire's profits were based on bootlegging.
A good read on this is The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald. Boot-legging (the illegal sale of alcohol) was a known criminal practice, though the government could do little to stop the activities entirely
The prohibition of slavery was called abolition. It refers to the legal and social movement to end the practice of slavery.
