| Publisher Description: Countries undergoing major social and legal transitions typically experience a light, but relatively insignificant, increase in crime. However, in the past decade, many transitional countries in Eastern Europe, and Russia in particular, have experienced a surge in criminal activities that came about through the collaboration of diverse players--such as criminals, state officials, businesspersons, and law enforcement--into organized networks aimed to obtain financial and economic gains. |
