Sinopse

Mobster Rise Insights explores the intricate web of factors that contribute to the rise of organized crime, moving beyond individual narratives to examine the historical, social, and economic conditions that allow mobsters to flourish. Rather than focusing solely on the actions of criminals, the book investigates the breeding grounds of organized crime, detailing how environments of social upheaval and political corruption can foster the growth of criminal enterprises. For example, periods like the Prohibition era saw immense growth in organized crime due to specific economic conditions. The book progresses by first establishing a historical context, then delving into three core areas: socio-economic conditions, weaknesses in law enforcement, and the psychological profiles of mob leaders.

 
It uncovers how poverty and lack of opportunity can drive individuals to seek alternative paths to wealth and status within criminal organizations. Furthermore, it addresses how systemic corruption within law enforcement and judicial loopholes enable criminal enterprises to operate with impunity. The book uses historical records, court documents, and criminological research to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics at play. Understanding these dynamics can show how systemic failures and individual ambition interact.

    Winner of the gold medal at the International Latino Book Awards for Best Latina-Themed Book and Best Self-Transformational Book! 
     
     
     
    Doing the work of social change is hard. Waking up every day to take on the biggest challenges of our time can be overwhelming, and sometimes progress is hard to see. And Latina activists face the additional challenges of racism and sexism in a predominantly white, patriarchal society. 
     
    Denise Collazo has been there. She is the first Latina, the first woman of color, and the first woman period to raise a family and stay in the work of community organizing at Faith in Action, an international progressive network of 3,000 congregations. Drawing on her own experiences and those of other Latina activists, Collazo lays out three keys to thriving in the movement for social change: leading into your vision, living into the fullest version of yourself, and loving past negatives that hold you back. She also warns about the three signs that you may be checking out, giving up, or passively standing by while problems get worse. This honest, practical, and inspirational book will help Latina activists to burn bright, not burn out.

    The lives of the sons of Eleanor of Aquitaine are the stuff of legend. Her daughters, however, are less well known, and the fascinating personalities of her daughters-in-law have been almost entirely overlooked, as have those of the daughters she bore Louis VII of France. 
     
     
     
    The Families of Eleanor of Aquitaine redresses this balance and showcases the lives, travels, and careers of these ten very different women, who formed a great international network of political alliances that linked their parents, siblings, husbands, and children all across Europe and the Holy Land. 
     
     
     
    Some of these women found happiness; others endured lives of turmoil and conflict. Some of them were close; others never met. But two things linked them all: their connection to Eleanor and to the kingdoms over which she reigned—and their determination to exert authority on their own terms in a male-dominated world.
