Inhumanely cruel and irresistibly cool, the Mafia has always captured
the darker side of the imagination. But just what is the mafia, how does
it operate, and what can be done to combat it?
In this dramatic and informative audiobook, James Finckenauer rejects
the mafia mystique and explores the sinister reality lurking beneath the
romanticised surface. Demonstrating that the mafia is a multi-faceted
and complex phenomenon, he argues that it destabilises society on a
global scale through its control of criminal markets, violence and
corruption. Mafia and Organised Crime is indispensable for anyone
intrigued by, or concerned about, this widely misunderstood phenomenon.
