Your Call 042308 McMafia

How do the international black market and national governments collude and cooperate in the black market? On the next Your Call we speak with journalist Misha Glenny, author of McMafia: A Journey Through the Global Criminal Underworld. Glenny was correspondent in South-eastern Europe and chronicled the rise of the criminal gangs that prospered during the post-Soviet chaos. The World Trade Organization now estimates that 20 percent of global trade is now controlled by criminal enterprises. Where does the line between illegal arms and drug dealing cross into official state policy? It's Your Call with Sandip Roy and you.
