"This book is the first to consider the intersection between mafia power and deviant
masonic lodges within the political sphere of the contemporary Italian state. At its
core, it offers an analysis of the shifting interactions across powerful actors and
the ways in which they balance reciprocal obedience, and a unique insight into the
political processes where mafia actors and deviant lodges play a significant role
in the allocation of resources. Mafia, Masons and Power draws on a wealth of literature
from across criminology and political science and a range of primary data sources
including judicial files indictments, arrest warrants, intercepted materials and sentences
for key cases, official documentation from Parliamentary commissions and special committees
of inquiry, rituals of affiliation and codes of initiation, and interviews with prosecutors,
journalists and experts. In doing so it redefines how we have come to understand the
relationship between mafias and power in Italy. It considers how criminal groups are
defined and enriched by a relational capital in shifty environments where every actor
assumes often a double nature: the mafia boss acts as an entrepreneur; the entrepreneur
acts as a politician; the politician mixes with masons; a deviant mason supports mafia
organisations. This book is a major contribution to the literature on mafias and organised
crime across criminology, sociology and political science, and will be of great interest
students, researchers, scholars and engaged general readers"
