Beschreibung

Triad Social Impact explores the far-reaching societal consequences of Triad activities, extending beyond individual crimes to impact entire communities. The book examines how these organized crime groups, evolving from fraternal societies, exploit communities economically through illicit activities like drug trafficking and extortion, creating cycles of poverty. It also highlights the erosion of social structures and trust, fostering environments of fear and distrust.

 
The book uniquely combines quantitative data with qualitative narratives, providing a holistic understanding of the issue. Presenting evidence from sociological surveys, government reports, and interviews, the book progresses logically, defining Triad structures, detailing economic consequences, and exploring social impacts. This approach illuminates how Triad activities undermine social institutions and foster corruption, ultimately contributing to violence and social disintegration.

 
Concluding with effective intervention strategies and policy recommendations, the book offers practical solutions to mitigate the negative consequences associated with Triad activities. It’s a valuable resource for academics, policymakers, and law enforcement professionals seeking to understand and address the systemic harm inflicted by organized crime.

    Political corruption is a pervasive issue that has existed for centuries, shaping the course of governments and societies worldwide. It manifests in various forms, from bribery and fraud to nepotism and abuse of power. Regardless of the system of governance, corruption erodes trust, distorts policies, and undermines democratic principles. While many assume corruption is limited to authoritarian regimes, it is also deeply embedded in democratic institutions, where influence and money often dictate political decisions.  
      
    The roots of corruption can be traced back to the earliest civilizations, where leaders sought personal gain at the expense of their people. Throughout history, political scandals have exposed the extent of corruption within governments, from financial embezzlement to electoral fraud. These cases serve as stark reminders of how unchecked power can lead to widespread deception and exploitation. Corruption is not only a moral failure but a structural issue that allows those in power to manipulate systems designed to serve the public.  
      
    Beyond historical examples, the impact of corruption is far-reaching. It weakens economies by diverting public funds into private hands, leaving essential services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure underfunded. It fuels inequality, as the wealthy and well-connected benefit from corrupt dealings while the average citizen suffers. When corruption becomes the norm, public trust in institutions erodes, leading to political apathy, civil unrest, and, in extreme cases, the collapse of governments.

    John "Sonny" Franzese reportedly committed his first murder at the age of fourteen. As a "made man" for the Colombo crime family, he operated out of his Long Island home specializing in racketeering, fraud, loansharking, and other illicit deeds he would deny to his dying day. His career in organized crime spanned over eight decades—and he was sentenced to fifty years in prison for robbery charges. But even behind bars, Sonny Franzese never stopped doing business . . . 
     
     
      
    This is the true story of an old-school Mafioso as it's never been told before. Newsday reporter S. J. Peddie interviewed Franzese in prison—and uncovered a lifetime of shocking secrets from the legend himself: why FBI director J. Edgar Hoover had a very personal interest in Sonny; how Sonny managed to juggle numerous affairs with women, including a famous model; how Sonny spent a third of his life in prison—and still managed to earn untold millions for the mob; how Sonny accidentally revealed some of his worst crimes—to a "friend" wearing a wire; and how Sonny hobnobbed with celebrities such as Ava Gardner, Jayne Mansfield, Bobby Darin, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Dionne Warwick, among others. 
     
     
      
    This is a must-listen for anyone fascinated with Mafia history—and a rare look inside a criminal mind that has become the stuff of legend.

    Anthropophagy – humans eating their fellow-humans – creates a curious blend of revulsion and fascination. When the perpetrator is a murderer – most commonly a sadistic serial killer – the crime is not only shocking, but also bewildering. 
    Moira Martingale’s comprehensive study, Cannibal Killers: The Impossible Monsters, was originally written in 1993, when the Internet was in its infancy, when few homes had computers and when the character Hannibal Lecter from the book and movie The Silence of the Lambs was regarded as an entirely fictional character, with no real-world counterparts or inspirations. The book demonstrated that this was an erroneous assumption. Translated into several languages and widely used as a resource by students studying for criminology degrees, this seminal work tracked the phenomenon of cannibalistic murderers throughout history, from the monstrous Sawney Bean, who killed and ate hundreds of travellers in Scotland five hundred years ago, to Jeffrey Dahmer, Andrei Chikatilo, Ed Kemper and Issei Sagawa – all loners, hiding their most terrible of secrets. 
    Then came the World Wide Web. In this comprehensively updated edition we see that in the twenty-first century cannibals who thirst for human flesh and blood are still among us, and, alarmingly, they have moved online to find their victims.
