Book Synopsis The Honored Society by : Petra Reski
Download or read book The Honored Society written by Petra Reski and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early hours of an August 2007 morning a gunfight broke out in an Italian restaurant in Duisburg, Germany; in less than five minutes over seventy shots were fired into the bodies of six men. Both the victims and the assassins were members of the 'Ndrangheta crime organization. Calabria's Mafia had brazenly shown its savage influence outside Italy for the first time. In The Honored Society award-winning investigative reporter Petra Reski reveals the Mafia menace lurking throughout the world-- from espresso bars in Palermo to European halls of parliament to the corporate headquarters of enormous agricultural firms. In haunting and exquisite prose she explores the Byzantine structure of the 'Ndrangheta, Cosa Nostra and other mafia clans throughout Italy -- the code they live by, the destruction they wreak, how they operate within the country and how they operate internationally. She shows how these syndicates dominate everything from nuclear waste disposal to hotel chains to the marijuana trade in Australia and cocaine trafficked throughout the world. Reski shows how figures such as Silvio Berlusconi were made by the Mafia, and how those who dared to defy its codes were broken. A searing portrait of the criminals who have come to control not only Italy but vast swathes of the globe, The Honored Society is a journalistic tour de force.

Book excerpt: "This is the scarcely credible story of the anarchy which followed the Allied invasion of Sicily in 1943, when the 'men of respect' of the Mafia got their grips on aristocrats, politicians, policemen, doctors, tradesmen, peasants, and even monks. Don Calo, the last of the traditional capo-mafias; 'Lucky' Luciano, the American gangster repatriated; Giuliano, the young bandit 'King of Montelepre', who ended by massacring peasants with machine-guns; the depraved and murderous monks of Mazzarino; these and an ugly gallery of other characters crowd the pages of Norman Lewis' vigorous account and vividly evoke the crushing squalor and misery of Sicily"--Back cover.

Book Synopsis Refuge of the Honored by : Yasuhito Kinoshita
Download or read book Refuge of the Honored written by Yasuhito Kinoshita and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faced with the decline of the traditional family and the explosive growth of the over-65 population, the Japanese are looking for new ways to care for their elders. This timely study documents the birth of a major social phenomenon in Japan—the planned retirement community. In the mid-1980s, Yasuhito Kinoshita spent a year living in Japan's first such community, Fuji-no-Sato. His collaboration with Christie W. Kiefer, a cultural gerontologist, is the first detailed study of a retirement community in a non-Western culture. Fuji-no-Sato is a social community with no visible traditions. Kinoshita and Kiefer show that its residents' preference for long-established relationships creates the need for the invention of relationships that have no precedent in Japanese society. This book reveals much about Japanese culture, and about the "graying of society" that plagues the newly industrialized countries of Asia. Its lessons about sensitivity to the elderly's values and the need for clear communication have important applications in other cultures as well.
