Ровно 100 лет назад, Владимира Ильича Ленина банально ограбили в Москве, в Сокольниках, отобрав автомобиль и личные вещи. «В чём дело? Я Ленин!», попытался сопротивляться вождь пролетариата, но грабитель, не расслышав, ответил: «Чёрт с тобой, что ты Левин. А я Кошельков, хозяин города ночью». 23-томное уголовное дело «О вооруженном нападении бандитов на В. И. Ленина» еще долго оставалось засекреченным. «Русские воры уникальны», – утверждает британский профессор, занимающийся вопросом десятилетия, – «Они отражение общества и перемен в нем». В книге Галеотти предлагает познакомиться с темной стороной России от первых ОПГ конокрадов до квартир с миллиардами. Ее вот-вот обещают издать в РФ. Интересно, без купюр? Volum mare de informație (tratează vreo 2 secole și cred că minim 100 de "bandiți"), dar nestructurată, superficială și pe repede înainte. Multe "anecdote" și personaje "picante", însă tratate tabloid, gen presă lejeră, fără a rezulta vreo imagine de ansamblu. Pe mine sincer m-a plictisit și nu am rămas cu nimic din ea. A good history of Russian major crime, its major players, politics, and market globalization. Starting with the original vory and the gulags through the 20th century and into the 21st century, Galeotti covers the history of Russian organized crime (an imprecise term) and how Russian politics and other criminal organizations have helped it to grow beyond its own borders. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"The first English-language book to document the men who emerged from the gulags to become Russia's much-feared crime class: the vory v zakone Mark Galeotti is the go-to expert on organized crime in Russia, consulted by governments and police around the world. Now, Western readers can explore the fascinating history of the vory v zakone, a group that has survived and thrived amid the changes brought on by Stalinism, the Cold War, the Afghan War, and the end of the Soviet experiment. The Vory-as the Russian mafia is also known-was born early in the twentieth century, largely in the gulags and criminal camps, where they developed their unique culture. Identified by their signature tattoos, members abided by the Thieves' Code, a strict system that forbade all paid employment and cooperation with law enforcement and the state. Based on two decades of on-the-ground research, Galeotti's captivating study details the Vory's journey to power from their early days to their adaptation to modern-day Russia's free-wheeling oligarchy and global opportunities beyond"--Publisher's description.
