The author analyzes the migratory trajectory of Tommaso Buscetta in Argentina in the second half of the 20th century, engaging journalistic and academic sources, both Argentine and Italian. Although the evidence gathered is not enough yet in order to draw an articulated vision that allows a fully understanding of Buscetta's alleged links with local political and economic actors as well as with other mafiosi present in Argentina, some preliminary findings suggest that this is an issue that deserves more academic attention.
