Sinopsis

Triad Structures Explored offers a deep dive into the clandestine world of Chinese Triads, examining their history, organizational structures, and impact on global crime. This book dissects how these criminal organizations have evolved from 17th-century resistance movements to modern transnational enterprises involved in activities from drug trafficking to political corruption. It reveals that Triads are not monolithic but rather dynamic networks with internal rivalries and shifting alliances. The book meticulously explores the Triads' internal mechanics, including their hierarchical arrangements and codes of conduct, providing a nuanced perspective often missed in traditional depictions. Readers will gain insights into the socio-political factors contributing to their resilience.

 
For example, the book highlights how periods of dynastic upheaval and economic reform have shaped Triad operations. Beginning with core concepts of Triad membership, the book progresses through the historical evolution of Triad societies, contemporary organizational structures, and diverse criminal activities. It concludes with an analysis of law enforcement challenges and recommendations for effective strategies. This comprehensive approach, grounded in law enforcement reports and academic research, makes it invaluable for academics, law enforcement, and anyone interested in understanding organized crime.

Tales from the Haunted South -...

Tiya Miles

In this book Tiya Miles explores the popular yet troubling phenomenon of "ghost tours," frequently promoted and experienced at plantations, urban manor homes, and cemeteries throughout the South. As a staple of the tours, guides entertain paying customers by routinely relying on stories of enslaved black specters. But who are these ghosts? Examining popular sites and stories from these tours, Miles shows that haunted tales routinely appropriate and skew African American history to produce representations of slavery for commercial gain. "Dark tourism" often highlights the most sensationalist and macabre aspects of slavery, from salacious sexual ties between white masters and black women slaves to the physical abuse and torture of black bodies to the supposedly exotic nature of African spiritual practices. Because the realities of slavery are largely absent from these tours, Miles reveals how they continue to feed problematic "Old South" narratives and erase the hard truths of the Civil War era. In an incisive and engaging work, Miles uses these troubling cases to shine light on how we feel about the Civil War and race, and how the ghosts of the past are still with us.
