The best thing that ever happened for organised crime was financial globalisation. If you’ve stolen a massive wad of money there is an entire – largely legal – global infrastructure for you to pump it through. And if you’ve ever wondered why dark money loves the new far right, there’s a simple reason: anyone who hates international cooperation is a friend of those moving dark money across borders. In the latest episode of our Saving Europe From Itself, Oliver Bullough has a big idea for Europe: get tough on the crooks.
The European Cultural Foundation supports this initiative as it is rethinking Europe as an open and democratic space.
