This book examines Russia's attempts to tackle the challenges of
the new and increasing security threats of rising crime, corruption
and terrorism that it has experienced since the break-up of the
Soviet Union in 1991. It demonstrates the close links between the
rising drug trade, border problems, migration issues, organised
crime, corruption and terrorism. Uncovering information not seen
before by Western audiences, this book: shows how Russia's porous
borders have facilitated the operation of transnational crime
groups explores the specific features that make particular regions
such as Siberia important for the drug trade and other forms of
smuggling, analysing the character of the different criminal groups
and networks, and investigating the informal links and collusion
between these organizations and police officials considers the
operation of corrupt practices in the military sector, one of the
most closed parts of the economy analyzes the ways in which Russia
is fighting crime, corruption and terrorism, and the implications
for civil liberties argues that the extensive flows of illegal
immigrants into Russia are creating ever more fertile grounds for
corruption, crime and terrorism, while the immigrants themselves
are often the victims of this crime.
