Course Description:

This course examines one such complex criminal phenomenon as the Mafia in its evolution from an agrarian-based criminal organization to a multinational of crime. This inevitably entails examining the main efforts made to this day to fight against organized crime as they have developed from the 1950s onwards in both the United States and Italy, which represent two core models for anti-mafia legislation.
