Book Synopsis Organised Crime in European Businesses by : Ernesto Savona
Download or read book Organised Crime in European Businesses written by Ernesto Savona and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The infiltration of organised crime in the legitimate economy has emerged as a transnational phenomenon. This book constitutes an unprecedented study of the involvement of criminal groups in the legitimate economy and their infiltration in legal businesses, and is the first to bridge the research gap between money laundering and organised crime. It analyses the main drivers of this process, explaining why, how and where infiltration happens. Building on empirical evidence from the Netherlands, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, the UK, Ireland, Italy, France and Finland, Organised Crime in European Businesses is divided into four parts. Part I explores the infiltration of legitimate businesses to conceal and facilitate illicit trafficking. Part II examines the infiltration of legitimate businesses to develop fraud schemes. Part III focuses on the infiltration of legitimate businesses to control the territory and influence policy makers. Part IV concludes by considering the research and policy implications in light of these findings. Bringing together leading experts and detailed case studies, this book considers the infiltration of organised crime in legitimate business around Europe. It is an ideal resource for students and academics in the fields of criminology, economics and sociology, as well as private sector practitioners, public officials and policy makers.
Download or read book Mafia Violence written by Monica Massari and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using in-depth field research and analysis of case studies, Mafia Violence: Political, Symbolic, and Economic Forms of Violence in Camorra Clans focuses attention on the phenomenon of violence performed by Italian organised crime groups, devoting specific attention to the Camorra, which has been responsible since the mid-1980s for almost half of all mafia homicides documented in Italy. The Camorra has acquired increased visibility at an international level due to its intense use of violence and high level of dangerousness, but until now, the study of the different forms of violence implemented by mafias has not received systematic attention at the scientific level. Hence, this book fills this gap by providing a both theoretical and empirical contribution toward the analysis of one of the most unknown – although highly visible and dangerous – dimension of mafias’ action. This collection of work by distinguished scholars provides a unique overview of the multifaceted characteristics of violence currently performed by mafia groups in Italy by focusing on specific actors – i.e., Camorra clans – but also other traditional mafia organisations such as Cosa Nostra and ’Ndrangheta; specific contexts – i.e., different territories and different markets, both legal and illegal; and specific practices and performances. Part I takes a diachronic and comparative perspective to provide an overview of mafias’ violence during the past 30 years, focusing on the three most prominent criminal organisations active in Italy: Camorra, Cosa Nostra, and ’Ndrangheta. Based on the outcomes of a major project carried out by a research group at the University of Naples Federico II from 2015 to 2017, Part II looks at the use of violence by Camorra clans, incorporating information from case studies, judicial files, law enforcement investigations, wiretappings, interviews with privileged observers, firsthand empirical data, and historical documents and social sciences literature. Using a multi-disciplinary approach drawing from criminology, sociology, history, anthropology, economics, political science, and geography, this book is essential reading for international researchers and practitioners interested in piecing together the full picture of modern organised crime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organised crime and financial crime are pressing global problems, increasingly recognised as policy priorities both by national governments and international bodies and corporations. This proudly interdisciplinary collection is built on the premise that these topics are too often artificially separated, both in scholarship and the classroom. Bringing together scholars from law, the social sciences, and the humanities, this book showcases a diverse range of perspectives on these complex and compelling global issues, and the criminal justice challenges that they pose. The themes discussed include legal theory and procedure; regulation and enforcement; prevention and punishment; media representation and perception. Readers are encouraged to think outside traditional disciplinary bounds and form their own connections and conclusions inspired by the juxtaposition of perspectives rarely seen together in the same volume.

This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the infiltration of Italian and Russian organised crime in the UK real estate market, assessing how vulnerable the UK is to these sorts of activities. It identifies the drivers behind the criminal choices and modus operandi of Italian and Russian organised crime groups, and the factors causing their mobility abroad. Investment of Criminal Proceeds into the Legitimate Economy broadens our knowledge on the relationship between criminal agency and criminogenic opportunity in a socio-economic and legal context. This book offers a critical insight into the criminal actors and operations of Italian and Russian organised crime groups, such as money laundering schemes in the real estate sector, whilst also exploring the role of crime facilitators. Drawing on interviews with prosecutors, law enforcement agents and investigative journalists, Investment of Criminal Proceeds into the Legitimate Economy explores how criminal investments adversely affect both law enforcement operations and socio-economic development in this area. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, law, organised crime, policymakers, and all those interested in how Italian and Russian organised crime operates in the UK real estate market.
Book Synopsis Camorristi, Politicians and Businessmen by : Felia Allum
Download or read book Camorristi, Politicians and Businessmen written by Felia Allum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This work presents a detailed study of the political role of a criminal organization, the Neapolitan Camorra, in its historical context, that of Naples over the last fifty years. In Campania, until 1991, the population tacitly accepted the relationship between the Camorra and the local political elite (based on the exchange of votes for state contracts and protection), and because of the lack of reliable sources it could not seriously be studied by political scientists. In 1991, however, a law was passed which gave generous remission of sentences to criminals who wanted to cooperate with the police. Following this, many members of the Camorra revealed important aspects of the criminal, economic and political activities of their organization. This new information has permitted a re-examination of the Camorra and has provided material for the story to be told."

Download or read book MAFIA written by Dario Abate and published by HOW2 Edizioni. This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "MAFIA" è un saggio di denuncia, che invita a riflettere sui mille rivoli di questo fenomeno, così radicato nella nostra società e nelle nostre istituzioni. Il libro analizza il fenomeno della criminalità organizzata in generale, in Italia e nel Mondo. La narrazione di questo saggio tratta, tra gli altri, i seguenti temi: . La fenomenologia delle Mafie italiane nelle sue svariate forme, manifestazioni, ramificazioni e infiltrazioni nella politica, nello Stato e nelle istituzioni; . Le manifestazioni della Mafia a livello internazionale ed i suoi protagonisti; . Chi sono stati e sono oggi gli Eroi e gli Antieroi della Mafia; . Quali sono, per tutti noi, i grandi quesiti etici e morali sulla Mafia; . Siamo tutti mafiosi? . Cosa è veramente la Mafia, perché sconfiggerla e come sarebbe l’Italia senza di essa. La mafia è un’organizzazione criminale che vìola la giustizia, per ottenere guadagni e potere, attraverso la violenza e l’intimidazione. Essa si è sviluppata storicamente in Italia, ma è presente in tutto il mondo e ha causato gravi danni alle società in cui opera, utilizzando attività illegali come il traffico di droga, il contrabbando, l’estorsione, la corruzione, lo sfruttamento della prostituzione e il riciclaggio di denaro sporco, per accumulare ricchezze e potere. Queste attività hanno effetti negativi sulla società, poiché danneggiano l’economia sana e distruggono la vita di moltissime persone. La mafia esercita il suo potere minacciando e uccidendo coloro che vi si oppongono o che rappresentano una minaccia per i suoi interessi. Questa violenza crea un clima di paura e di insicurezza nella società, limitando libertà e democrazia. La mafia, che in varie forme è sempre esistita, è una grave minaccia al progresso ma, grazie alla diffusione della cultura, un giorno essa sarà solo un ricordo. All’uopo, è bene fare del nostro meglio per ostacolarla in ogni modo, educando le nuove generazioni a riconoscerla e combatterla. Il progresso, che ha caratterizzato la storia dell’uomo, prevede certamente il debellamento di questo male atavico ma ognuno di noi, nel suo piccolo, ha il dovere morale di fare qualcosa affinché ciò accada il prima possibile. La mafia è una male anche per chi la gestisce e rappresenta, dato che costoro scelgono consapevolmente un modello di vita fatto di privazioni e costanti rischi per la vita propria e dei propri cari. Vorrei chiedere ad ognuno dei grandi boss storici: fu vera gloria?

Book Synopsis Mafia-type Organisations and Extortion in Italy by : Giacomo Di Gennaro
Download or read book Mafia-type Organisations and Extortion in Italy written by Giacomo Di Gennaro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-05 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mafia-type organizations generate several distorting effects on the economy. In Italy their presence is endemic, and not only in Southern regions such as Sicily, Campania or Calabria. Such organizations endure the fierce and continuous pressure exerted by Italian anti-mafia policy, maybe the most articulate and effective such policy in the world. Nevertheless, they have survived by submerging, transforming, and relocating their operations. The analysis of the different Mafias of today benefits from a huge amount of empirical data produced by investigators. This allows us to outline more reliable indexes of the penetration of Mafiosi in given territories, as well as to estimate the size of their activities in a transparent and empirically testable way. The contributions gathered in this book stem from the application of an innovative methodology originally introduced by the Fondazione Rocco Chinnici, and they enlarge our understanding of such a complex and dynamic phenomenon. After the presentation of the approach, the chapters are devoted to the Camorra's present situation, to an estimate of the size of extortion, to a comparison between Cosa Nostra and Camorra, to the analysis of wiretapped conversations and, finally, to the delocalization of Mafias and the perspectives of a European anti-mafia policy. This book was originally published as a special issue of Global Crime.
Book Synopsis Criminal Markets and Mafia Proceeds by : Ernesto Savona
Download or read book Criminal Markets and Mafia Proceeds written by Ernesto Savona and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book estimates the proceeds of crime and mafia revenues for different criminal markets such as sexual exploitation, drugs, illicit cigarettes, loan sharking, extortion racketeering, counterfeiting, illicit firearms, illegal gambling and illicit waste management. It is the first time that scholars have adopted detailed methodologies to ensure the highest reliability and validity of the estimation. Overall, estimated proceeds of crime amount to € 22.8 billion: 1.5% of the Italian GDP. Of this, up to € 10.7 billion (0.7 of the GDP) may be attributable to the Italian mafias. These figures are considerably lower than the ones most frequently circulated on the news, without any details about their methodology, which were defined by a UN study as "gross overestimates". Far from underestimating criminal revenues, the results of this study bring the issue of the proceeds of crime to an empirically-based debate, providing support for improved future estimates and more effective policies. The volume’s contributions were inspired by a project awarded by the Italian Ministry of Interior to Transcrime, which produced the first report on mafia investments (www.investimentioc.it). This book was originally published as a special issue of Global Crime.
