This book presents primary research conducted in Italy, USA, Australia and the UK on countering strategies and institutional perceptions of Italian mafias and local organized crime groups. Through interviews and interpretation of original documents, this study firstly demonstrates the interaction between institutional understanding of the criminal threats and historical events that have shaped these perceptions. Secondly, it combines analysis of policies and criminal law provisions to identify how policing models which combat mafia and organised crime activities are organized and constructed in each country within a comparative perspective. After presenting the similarities between the four differing policing models, Sergi pushes the comparison further by identifying both conceptual and procedural convergences and divergences across both the four models and within international frameworks. By looking at topics as varied as mafia mobility, money laundering, drug networks and gang violence, this book ultimately seeks to reconsider the conceptualizations of both mafia and organized crime from a socio-behavioural and cultural perspective.

Download Criminal Markets and Mafia Proceeds Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book estimates the proceeds of crime and mafia revenues for different criminal markets such as sexual exploitation, drugs, illicit cigarettes, loan sharking, extortion racketeering, counterfeiting, illicit firearms, illegal gambling and illicit waste management. It is the first time that scholars have adopted detailed methodologies to ensure the highest reliability and validity of the estimation. Overall, estimated proceeds of crime amount to € 22.8 billion: 1.5% of the Italian GDP. Of this, up to € 10.7 billion (0.7 of the GDP) may be attributable to the Italian mafias. These figures are considerably lower than the ones most frequently circulated on the news, without any details about their methodology, which were defined by a UN study as "gross overestimates". Far from underestimating criminal revenues, the results of this study bring the issue of the proceeds of crime to an empirically-based debate, providing support for improved future estimates and more effective policies. The volume’s contributions were inspired by a project awarded by the Italian Ministry of Interior to Transcrime, which produced the first report on mafia investments (www.investimentioc.it). This book was originally published as a special issue of Global Crime.

The persistence of ‘Ndrangheta activities around the world show that deterrence efforts alone directed against organized crime fall short in significantly reducing or preventing ‘Ndrangheta organized crime. Additional approaches derived from the Rational Choice Perspective (RCP) are discussed, which include Routine Activities (RA) and Situational Crime Prevention (SCP). These practical approaches are applied to ‘Ndrangheta for the purpose of identifying required changes in the environment i.e., political, economic, social, technological, legal that are inclusive of environmental (PESTLE) in a framework using Dynamic Operational Design Planning and Assessment Approach (DODPAA). This approach offers a process for designing actions and measuring results for confronting ‘Ndrangheta organized crime. An example framework model using cocaine transiting through the port of Gioia Tauro is created as an illustration to assist in developing a law enforcement, judicial and legislative plans of action in order to measure, evaluate, and have results integrated into more detailed comprehensive plans of action for reducing and eventually preventing overall ‘Ndrangheta organized crime. This book presents a unique practical method, process, and model for security practitioners, criminologists and policy makers to consider for designing plans of action to confront, challenge, and assess future counter ‘Ndrangheta efforts.
