While the later history of the New York Mafia has received extensive attention, what has been conspicuously absent until now is an accurate and conversant review of the formative years of Mafia organizational growth. David Critchley examines the Mafia recruitment process, relations with Mafias in Sicily, the role of non-Sicilians in New York’s organized crime Families, kinship connections, the Black Hand, the impact of Prohibition, and allegations that a "new" Mafia was created in 1931. This book will interest Historians, Criminologists, and anyone fascinated by the American Mafia.

While there are many books & articles available on gangs today, Dr. Knox's book is one of the most comprehensive & coherent. AN INTRODUCTION TO GANGS is a highly disciplined approach to the topic. While much of the current material is anecdotal & vague in defining the characteristics of gangs, Knox provides answers based on empirical research to the most commonly asked questions about gangs in the United States: When does the group of kids on the corner become a gang? How much crime in America is explained by gang involvement? Dr. Knox's approach is incremental. He addresses the major issues, & then provides a more integrated view, including a gang topology. The book concludes with a detailed review of competing definitions of gangs & suggests Knox's integrated definition of membership states, organizational levels, threat severity & intervention strategies as the appropriate model for today. AN INTRODUCTION TO GANGS is an excellent guidebook & reference resource for law enforcement personnel involved with gangs, & is unequalled for the social science field researcher. The scope of the information & valuable insights it contains give it great instructional value. Priced at $44.50 (less 20 percent to the trade), prepaid. Order from Vande Vere Publishing Ltd., P.O.

This book aims to describe and demystify what makes criminal gangs so culturally powerful. It examines their codes of conduct, initiation rites, secret communications methods, origin myths, symbols, and the like that imbue the gangsters with the pride and nonchalance that goes hand in hand with their criminal activities. Mobsters are everywhere in the movies, on television, and on websites. Contemporary societies are clearly fascinated by them. Why is this so? What feature and constituents of organized criminal gangs make them so emotionally powerful—to themselves and others? These are the questions that have guided the writing of this textbook, which is intended as an introduction to organized crime from the angle of cultural analysis. Key topics include: • An historic overview of organized crime, including the social, economic, and cultural conditions that favour its development; • A review of the type of people who make up organized gangs and the activities in which they engage; • The symbols, rituals, codes and languages that characterize criminal institutions; • The relationship between organized crime and cybercrime; • The role of women in organized crime; • Drugs and narco-terrorism; • Media portrayals of organized crime. Organized Crime includes case studies and offers an accessible, interdisciplinary approach to the subject of organized crime. It is essential reading for students engaged with organized crime across criminology, sociology, anthropology and psychology.
