Description: |
Please join the Leverhulme-funded Conspiracy & Democracy research project on Tuesday, 29th April at 5pm at the Alison Richard Building (Sidgwick Site) when Mr Dwight Smith Jr will speak about ‘The Mafia & Conspiracy’.

Mr Smith will describe the ideas, experiences, and events through which his book, ‘The Mafia Mystique’ (1975), took shape; the consequences of those events that have led to contemporary public understanding and use of ‘Mafia’ in the United States; and the consequences in a democracy of strategies that were developed for organized crime control. |
