This book presents a multi-disciplinary investigation into extortion rackets with a particular focus on the structures of criminal organisations and their collapse, societal processes in which extortion rackets strive and fail and the impacts of bottom-up and top-down ways of fighting extortion racketeering. Through integrating a range of disciplines and methods the book provides an extensive case study of empirically based computational social science. It is based on a wealth of qualitative data regarding multiple extortion rackets, such as the Sicilian Mafia, an international money laundering organisation and a predatory extortion case in Germany. Computational methods are used for data analysis, to help in operationalising data for use in agent-based models and to explore structures and dynamics of extortion racketeering through simulations. In addition to textual data sources, stakeholders and experts are extensively involved, providing narratives for analysis and qualitative validation of models. The book presents a systematic application of computational social science methods to the substantive area of extortion racketeering. The reader will gain a deep understanding of extortion rackets, in particular their entrenchment in society and processes supporting and undermining extortion rackets. Also covered are computational social science methods, in particular computationally assisted text analysis and agent-based modelling, and the integration of empirical, theoretical and computational social science.

Este libro aborda aspectos fundamentales de la transformación digital en las organizaciones, y a través de estas, en la sociedad en general. Especialistas de diversos campos disciplinares y contextos, así como líderes con experiencia en la realización de este tipo de iniciativas en organizaciones de diversos tipos y tamaños, abordan los orígenes, los fundamentos y las implicaciones de esta importante transformación. La transformación digital conduce a las organizaciones a considerar la implementación de múltiples iniciativas tecnológicas, pero también, a la realización de diversas acciones en lo social, lo cultural, lo político, lo económico, lo ecológico y lo normativo, en la configuración de un proceso de adaptación a las nuevas realidades y, en no pocas ocasiones, de un proceso que responde a la necesidad de reconfigurar, reinventar y hacer avanzar los esquemas tradicionales de organizarnos socialmente, con el interés de alcanzar nuevos estándares de bienestar, desarrollo y prosperidad para la humanidad. Este tipo de transformación implica la reconfiguración del modelo de negocio y, de hecho, el surgimiento de nuevos negocios, así como el establecimiento de formas inéditas de comerciar, comunicarse y de interactuar en todas las esferas entre los diversos actores que dan forma a la sociedad. Dado que en América Latina no existen suficientes trabajos que permitan comprender los aspectos relevantes de la transformación digital en el contexto organizacional, y de la sociedad en su conjunto, este libro pretende constituirse en una obra de referencia y de consulta para aquellas personas interesadas en este tema en el contexto actual.
