Mafie are not only a problem of the South of Italy, and they are not only a criminal phenomenon.
Nobody wrote a History of Italy talking about mafie and this is a big mistake because the History of mafie is a part of the Italian history.
Mafie are grown up thanks to the relationships with “powerful people”: politicians and entrepreneurs. They have often been recognized as “problem solving” organizations, also by the State, in many important moments of the History of Italy.
