Corruption, bribery and cronyism aren’t just criminal matters.
International alliances of corrupt states and their enablers are
undermining democracies and international law, creating a world
without rules where everything and anyone can be bought. From
Putin’s gangster state to COVID corruption and favouritism in the
UK, the West’s response has been feeble. Is Kleptocracy the real
threat to global stability? Emma Beals explores an existential
danger with anti-corruption writer Sarah Chayes – author of
Everybody Knows: Corruption in America – and Guardian
investigations correspondent and author of Cuckooland: Where the
Rich Own the Truth Tom Burgis. • “If Trump wins, more than ever US
