Popis:	This article attempts to examine the mafiosi’s potential economic and political power with the help of two analytical tools: the mafioso mode of production, and mafioso capitalists. In evaluating the actual power of the mafiosi, the article presents empirical information on Turkey and other countries. It acknowledges that although the mafioso (capitalist) bosses hold the direct command of armed power, neither their antagonism nor their alliance with the conventional bourgeoisie can be essentialised. The results and prospects are evaluated in a way that stresses the need for a change in our worldviews in order to construct a more compassionate world.
