The politics of organized crime and the organized crime of politics : a study in criminal power

More than simply a study of the mafia, this book argues that collaboration between political science and criminology is critical to understanding the real nature of organized crime and its power. It extends into a consideration of the possible future development of organized crime in the age of advanced globalization.
