Summary

"The Japanese mafia - known collectively as yakuza - has had a considerable influence on Japanese society over the past fifty years. Based on extensive Japanese language source material and interviews with criminals, police officers, lawyers, journalists, and scholars, this is the first English language academic monography to analyse Japan's criminal syndicates." "Readership: Scholars and students of sociology, especially criminologists; readers interested in Japanese studies."--BOOK JACKET.
