Historia de la mafia / Cosa Nostra: A History of the Sicilian Mafia (Spanish Edition)

John Dickie
4.9/5 (23772 ratings)
Description:Mafia. Camorra. 'Ndrangheta. La mafia siciliana, la Cosa Nostra, no es la única sociedad criminal peligrosa de italia.El país alberga otras dos mafias importantes: la camorra napolitana y, en la pobre y aislada región de Calabria, la misteriosa 'Ndrangheta, que se ha convertido en la más poderosa de la actualidad.Desde que aparecieron, las tres mafias han corrompido las instituciones italianas, recortado las opciones vitales de sus conciudadanos, eludido la justicia y establecido su rentable intermediación como alternativa a los tribunales.Pero cada una de estas hermandades tiene sus propios métodos, sus rituales salvajes, su brutalidad característica. La sombra del crimen organizado oscurece todo un país consumido por la deuda, la parálisis política y la corrupción rampante.La 'Ndrangheta controla la mayoría del tráfico mayorista de cocaína, y, según algunos cálculos, hasta el 3 % del PIB de Italia. John Dickie es una autoridad internacional en la historia del crimen organizado, y en este libro combina la investigación en archivos con una narración apasionante y un lúcido análisis para explicar un ecosistema criminal único, y obtener la obra definitiva sobre la mafia en toda su extensión.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONHailed in Italy as the best book ever written about the mafia in any language, Cosa Nostra is a fascinating, violent, and darkly comic account that reads like fiction and takes us deep into the inner sanctum of this secret society where few have dared to tread.In this gripping history of the Sicilian mafia, John Dickie uses startling new research to reveal the inner workings of this secret society with a murderous record. He explains how the mafia began, how it responds to threats and challenges, and introduces us to the real-life characters that inspired the American imagination for generations, making the mafia an international, larger than life cultural phenomenon. Dickie's dazzling cast of characters includes Antonio Giammona, the first "boss of bosses'; New York cop Joe Petrosino, who underestimated the Sicilian mafia and paid for it with his life; and Bernard "the Tractor" Provenzano, the current boss of bosses who has been hiding in Sicily since 1963.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
