Description
Christina Jerne explores anti-mafia activism, revealing how ordinary people resist, counter, and prevent criminal economies from proliferating. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among anti-mafia alliances in Campania, Sicily, and elsewhere, Jerne details a particular aspect of mafia activities: providing cash relief and other forms of patronage to individuals and groups.
