  • In this episode of 'The Real Life in Italy,' we're following up our Understanding the Italian Mafia episode to specifically focus on Cosa Nostra. Now, there's a LOT. This podcast episode is just giving you a basic understanding to put into context of your life as an expat in Italy. We'll cover a bit about Cosa Nostra's history, organizational structure, and how it has managed to adapt and survive over the years. Key historical events, such as the Maxi Trials in the 1980s and 1990s, are highlighted for their role in reshaping the mafia's operations. The episode also covers how the mafia influences today's Italy, including its impact on politics, business, and everyday life. I'll share a few antimafia movements you should be aware of, and details on how corruption happens today in Italy.
