A locale (translated as "local" or "place"), is the main local organizational unit of the 'Ndrangheta with jurisdiction over criminal activities in an entire town or an area in a large urban center.〔Paoli, ''Mafia Brotherhoods'', (pp. 29-30 )〕〔Nicaso & Danesi, ''Made Men'', (p. 23 )〕 A ''locale'' is usually made up by one '''ndrina'' (in the case of a small town) or several '' 'ndrine'', if more than one '' 'ndrina'' operates in the same town. In the case of larger cities a local may rule over a certain area or neighbourhood of the city.〔 In some contexts a '' 'ndrina'' is more powerful than the ''locale'' on which they formally depend.〔 Each ''locale'' has a boss with authority over members' life and death, a ''capo locale'', usually the capobastone of a 'ndrina.〔 It has at least 49 members and besides the ''capo locale'', there is the ''contabile '' (accountant) who handles the finances - commonly called ''la bacinella'' or ''la valigetta'' (briefcase) - and a ''crimine'' that oversees the illegal activity. All three form a triumvirate called the ''Copiata''.〔 (Il Crimine, i mastri, le 'ndrine; ecco la Cupola modello Cosa nostra ), La Repubblica, July 14, 2010〕 A ''locale'' is often subdivided into two divisions: the ''società minore'' (the "minor" or lower society) and the ''società maggiore'' ("major" or higher society). The minor is submissive to the major.〔〔Paoli, ''Mafia Brotherhoods'', (pp. 47-48 )〕 The ''locale'' of San Luca has a historical preeminence. Every new group or ''locale'' must obtain its authorization to operate and every group belonging to the 'Ndrangheta "still has to deposit a small percentage of illicit proceeds to the ''principale'' of San Luca in recognition of the latter's primordial supremacy."〔 == References == * Gratteri, Nicola & Antonio Nicaso (2006).
