The Camorra is not simply another organized crime group. It is known as the most flexible, factious and violent mafia in Italy. Even though its origin is Naples and the surrounding area, Camorristi (the members of Camorra) moved to other countries in the last decades and the organization rapidly became internationalized. The Invisible Camorra explores the local and global dynamics that characterize the power of this notorious mafia group. Felia Allum spent many years studying the labyrinthine networks of the Camorra. In The Invisible Camorra, Allum meticulously examines the Camorra’s operational territories in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Spain and the UK. To determine the local and global motives of this movement, Allum interviewed magistrates and police officers and presents court records, police data and criminal confessions. The Invisible Camorra offers an absorbing narrative and makes clear how and why many Camorristi became invisible when they moved to another country because of police suppression or gang competition in their local territories in Italy. Their movement to another country was not based on merely income generation. There are other social, emotional, or psychological motives that force members of the Camorra to travel abroad. However, the business opportunities that the Camorristi created abroad provided them a good opportunity to present themselves as respectful and law-abiding citizens to the state officials. Human behaviour regulates actions according to perceived threats and goals. The need for cooperation in collective human behaviour canalizes the members of a social group to create a cohesive structure to respond to threats and then realize goals. Yet the collective human behaviour in the ranks of mafia clans is more capable than many other social structures when it comes to the elimination of threats and the revision of goals. This aptitude is a necessity for a social entity to control, transform and sustain itself as its 791972 ISS0010.1177/0268580918791972International Sociology ReviewsReviews: Economy, hidden and visible book-review2018

Camorra 不仅仅是另一个有组织的犯罪集团。它被称为意大利最灵活、最有派系和最暴力的黑手党。尽管其起源于那不勒斯及周边地区,但卡莫里斯蒂(卡莫拉的成员)在过去几十年中移居其他国家,该组织迅速国际化。Invisible Camorra 探索了表征这个臭名昭著的黑手党组织力量的本地和全球动态。Felia Allum 花了很多年时间研究卡莫拉迷宫般的网络。在 The Invisible Camorra 中,Allum 仔细检查了 Camorra 在德国、荷兰、法国、西班牙和英国的运营区域。为了确定这场运动的本地和全球动机,阿勒姆采访了地方法官和警察,并提供了法庭记录、警方数据和犯罪供词。Invisible Camorra 提供了一个引人入胜的叙述,并阐明了许多 Camorristi 在他们搬到另一个国家时如何以及为什么因为警察镇压或意大利当地的帮派竞争而变得隐形。他们移居另一个国家不仅仅是基于创收。还有其他社会、情感或心理动机迫使卡莫拉成员出国旅行。然而,卡莫里斯蒂在国外创造的商业机会为他们提供了一个向国家官员展示自己尊重和守法公民的好机会。人类行为根据感知到的威胁和目标来调节行动。人类集体行为中的合作需要引导社会群体的成员创建一个有凝聚力的结构来应对威胁,然后实现目标。然而,在消除威胁和修改目标方面,黑手党氏族行列中的集体人类行为比许多其他社会结构更有能力。这种能力是社会实体控制、改造和维持自身的必要条件 791972 ISS0010.1177/0268580918791972 国际社会学评论评论:经济、隐藏和可见书评2018
