How to unlock the It's a Brave New World achievement in Mafia III: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide
This is story related and cannot be missed. The achievement does not unlock, though, at the point where the Butcher is turned over to Burke. Rather, it pops after a cut scene with Jonathan Maguire, the former Assistant Director of the Criminal Enterprise Branch. Following the cut scene, a banner appears stating that the Kill the Bishop mission is complete and the achievement pops as shown in the below video:
The story progression that unlocks the achievement is completing the Pointe Verdun missions. The specific trigger is the Kill the Butcher mission. The prerequisites for that mission are to complete the Cut and Run and A Nation Once Again missions and to secure the Moonshine and Protection rackets. All of these take place in Pointe Verdun. Once the Kill the Butcher mission is completed and the ensuing cut scenes play out, the achievement will unlock:

@SomeChalk155041; Mafia III is very buggy and there are problems with many achievements. Most of them are glitched because there is a problem with the counter. But this achievement doesn't use the counter which means it might be possible to fix.
I recommend clearing the cache. To do so, turn off the console by holding the button on the console for at least ten seconds and then unplug the console from the wall for at least 20 seconds. If you can, load a save made just before the achievement was supposed to pop.
If I remember correctly, Mafia III keeps the last 3 auto-saves. Hopefully, one of them will be just before the achievement was supposed to pop. This time, with the cleared cache, maybe the achievement will unlock.

This is unlocked upon completing Story Mission “Kill the Butcher”. You’ll need to cripple or destroy Roman “The Butcher” Barbieri's operations, which are his Moonshine and Protection rackets to force him to actually come attack you and Burke at Burke’s hideout. Both rackets include opportunities to recruit an Informant in addition to recruiting the racket leader. When Barbieri appears, defeat all his men from your sniping perch then confront him face to face after all threats are eliminated.
