McMafia

the long version

"With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the deregulation of international financial markets in 1989, governments and entrepreneurs alike became intoxicated by dreams of newly opened markets. But no one could have foreseen that the greatest success story to arise from these events would be the world-wide rise of organized crime. Today, it is estimated that illegal trade accounts for one-fifth of the global GDP."--Cover.
