Moneyland: The Inside Story of the Crooks and Kleptocrats Who Rule the World

Kleptocracies, corrupt governments that exploit their people, are rising from ruined Siberian towns to London and Manhattan. Once, corrupt officials could only spend stolen money on luxuries. But bankers devised a plan.

Join investigative journalist Oliver Bullough on a journey to Moneyland, the secret country of the lawless, stateless superrich. Learn how European and US institutions have become money-laundering operations, threatening the stability of many countries. Meet the kleptocrats and their children, and discover how activists fight back. This is the story of wealth and power in the 21st century. Change is still possible.
