A Defector's View on the Mafia
Pino Arlacchi's Men of Dishonor is a scary and accurate look at how the Sicilian Mafia works, mostly through the admissions of Tommaso Buscetta, the first high-ranking Mafioso to testify against the Mafia. With extraordinary access, Arlacchi, a well-known Italian sociologist and mafia expert, tells Buscetta's narrative in depth, showing the harsh rules, complicated structures, and deadly operations that made up the Cosa Nostra.
This isn't just a look at the Mafia; it's a look at how organized crime affects society and politics, showing how the Mafia got into politics, business, and everyday life in Italy and other places.
