Moneyland: Why Thieves And Crooks Now Rule The World And How To Take It Back
"An investigative journalist's deep dive into the corrupt workings of the world's kleptocrats... Kleptocracies, governments run by corrupt leaders that prosper at the expense of their people, are on the rise."
Just started reading Autocracy, Inc. by Anne Applebaum.
A sharp, unsettling look at how modern autocracies work together as a global network where corruption, power, and money are tightly linked. A very timely read right now.
