Abstract

Une fascinante enquête au coeur de Cosa Nostra. Un lumineux plongeon dans l'âme de la Sicile et de l'Italie d'après-guerre. Au sud de l'Italie, la Sicile, une île aux paysages arides, aux côtes magnifiques et aux trésors artistiques et archéologiques uniques, attire conquérants et voyageurs depuis des siècles. Au coeur de cette rare beauté, Cosa Nostra, la mafia sicilienne, sa violence et sa corruption, qui imprègne chaque recoin de la vie insulaire. Avec comme point de départ le fracassant procès à la fin des années 1990 de l'ancien Premier ministre italien Giulio Andreotti, accusé de multiples complicités avec la mafia, Minuit en Sicile plonge le lecteur dans une enquête haletante baignée de toute l'exubérance et l'envoûtement de cette île merveilleuse. Le voyage de Peter Robb au coeur le plus sombre de la Sicile emprunte les voies de l'histoire, de l'art, de la gastronomie et du voyage pour l'un des meilleurs livres écrits sur l'Italie contemporaine. Sensuel, fascinant et glaçant. (4e de couverture).

Abstract

Despite depictions to the contrary, the mafia is not a cadre of noble and righteous warriors, a class of citizens working in the shadows but upholding traditional values. Instead, the authors argue, it is a brutal, violent, and ignoble organization that ultimately violates the boundaries of acceptable behavior both within the family and without.

Abstract

A case began to unfold like nothing the quaint Detroit suburban area of Orchard Lake had ever seen. In the hours following a near head-on collision between a mysterious sedan and an on-duty patrolman, the frightening truth behind the speeding car's driver would be discovered. The vehicle was littered with weapons, drugs, and cash, yet these items weren't even the beginning. The most menacing item law enforcement could imagine was made of paper. Found in Chester Wheeler Campbell's possession was a set of meticulously detailed assassin's notebooks - containing the names of unsolved murder victims and a list of planned targets. It was a time when outlandish courtroom drama, gangland executions, corruption investigations, and scandals were all part of the twisted world where a Motor City Hit Man could thrive. This is the true tale not only of a murderer for hire, but also the parallel people and occurrences that helped warp a stressed socio-economic landscape of Detroit into a drug fueled organized crime controlled underworld.

Abstract

Transnational organized crime interferes with the everyday lives of more and more people - and represents a serious threat to democracy. By now, organized crime has become an inherent feature of economic globalization, and the fine line between the legal and illegal operation of business networks is blurred. Additionally, few experts could claim to have comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the laws and regulations governing the international flow of trade, and hence of the borderline towards criminal transactions. This book offers contributions from 12 countries around the world authored by 25 experts from a wide range of academic disciplines, representatives from civil society organizations and private industry, journalists, as well as activists. Recognizing the complexity of the issue, this publication provides a cross cultural and multi-disciplinary analysis of transnational organized crime including a historical approach from different regional and cultural contexts. Conception: Regine Schönenberg and Annette von Schönfeld. »Insgesamt vermittelt der Band [...] trotz oder gerade wegen der zahlreichen Perspektiven auf das Thema ein Verständnis für die Vielschichtigkeit des Problems und die Notwendigkeit umfassenderer Ansätze.« Christian Patz, Portal für Politikwissenschaft, 09.04.2015 »Es ist die nüchterne, wissenschaftliche Analyse und ihre Sprache, die die Problematik so eindringlich präsentiert und beweist, dass die Organisierte Kriminalität weltweit keine marginale Erscheinung ist und konsequentes, gemeinsames Handeln erfordert - auch in Deutschland.« Europäische Sicherheit & Technik, 3 (2014) »Das Buch bietet einen guten Einstieg in die Thematik und liest sich sehr abwechslungsreich.« Alexander Kamprad, http://criminologia.de/www.surveillance-studies.org, 1 (2014) »The broad range of perspectives and multi-professional approach are refreshing and fit well into the editors mission to focus on features of TOC that are not generally brought into conversation with each other.« Nicholas Dietrich, H-Soz-u-Kult, 06.12.2013 Reviewed in: taz, 20.06.2013, Wolf-Dieter Vogel
