Demystifying 'Ndrangheta: Challenging the Organized Crime Phenomenon of Calabria

By Vincent C Figliomeni PhD

This book is focused on demystifying 'Ndrangheta, which includes unraveling 'Ndrangheta's behavioral elements that exploit criminal opportunities through conspiracy, collusion, and corruption, common among most mafia'-type groups, reinforced by 'mafia-mystique'. The 'Ndrangheta phenomenon has evolved over time by exploiting critical supporting elements of power present within the cultural, socio-economic, and political environments of Calabria, which in turn perpetuates, protects, and sustains 'Ndrangheta's presence and persistence. A comprehensive and practical anti-/ counter-'Ndrangheta overarching campaign plan model is presented to assist policy makers, security practitioners, and criminologists in developing a method and a process for taking actions that neutralize essential elements of power and prestige that besides wealth, are primary objectives of 'Ndrangheta.
