Guillermo Trejo y Sandra Ley ofrecen en este libro una teoría novedosa y necesaria sobre la violencia criminal, que enfatiza la influencia crucial de la política. A diferencia de estudios previos, que ven a los grupos de crimen organizado como empresas económicas libres que operan en oposición a las autoridades estatales, Trejo y Ley los conciben como grupos ilegales íntimamente relacionados con el Estado. Por tanto, estos grupos responden al cambio político: el crimen organizado no puede existir ni operar con éxito si no cuenta con algún grado de protección estatal.

The United States is an exceptionally violent country, increasingly unable or unwilling to stem violence in its many forms. A growing corporate crime wave has gone unprosecuted and unpunished. Meanwhile, the country has doubled down on pursuing people accused of street and drug crimes and immigration offenses. Corporate impunity, the financialization of the economy, militarized policing, the burgeoning carceral state, and the forever wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere all have fostered corporate, economic, and state violence in America.

Roma è sotto assedio. Un lungo assedio criminale che comincia già dopo la breccia di Porta Pia, con l’imponente lottizzazione e con gli scandali della Banca Romana; si rafforza con la presenza di mafiosi di caratura internazionale dediti allo spaccio di droga dopo la fine della Seconda guerra mondiale; si organizza con la comparsa della banda della Magliana e infine dilaga con l’inchiesta Mafia Capitale, che ha puntato i riflettori su un’associazione a delinquere arrivata al cuore della politica e dell’amministrazione capitolina, e che tuttavia la Corte di cassazione non ha ritenuto di qualificare come mafia.

The American people depend on a free press to keep a close and impartial watch on the national security operations that are carried out in our name. But in many cases, this trust is sadly misplaced, as leading journalists are seduced and manipulated by the secretive agencies they cover. While the press remains silent about its corrupting relationship with the intelligence community - a relationship that dates back to the Cold War - Spooking the News will blow the lid off this unseemly arrangement.

They locked him up to send a message. This book sends one right back.

Ambushed by five armed FBI agents at Reagan airport, shackled in leg irons, and strip-searched, Navarro became the first ever top presidential aide in US history to be put in federal prison for defending the Constitution.

"La gente ci descrive come fossimo dei mostri, delle persone senza scrupoli, come se ammazzassimo la gente così a caso. Non è vero. Sappiamo farlo quando serve. Io so essere cattivo, quando serve. Se non serve faccio la persona normale." Queste parole, pronunciate da un boss calabrese e intercettate dalla Direzione distrettuale antimafia di Milano, sono rappresentative della strategia che da almeno sessant'anni le mafie mettono in campo per infiltrarsi in maniera sempre più capillare nel tessuto socio-economico del nostro Paese."

What is it about human nature that leads some people to commit unspeakably evil acts? And, perhaps a more important question for each of us, why do so many people submit to or even support these villains? World history sadly offers us a long list of dictators and totalitarian thugs who used their power to steal from and oppress their countrymen—and kill those who defied them. As tragic as these stories all are, they can still offer us lessons to learn from if we try to understand why these people acted the way they did—both those in control and those who were controlled.
