Über zweieinhalb Jahrzehnte nach seinem Welt-Bestseller "HITLERS HELFER" porträtiert Guido Knopp in seinem neuen (Hör-)Buch nun die Mächtigen eines Reiches, das den Weltfrieden mehr denn je bedroht: "PUTINS HELFER". Sie halten ihren Herrscher an der Macht und profitieren allesamt von ihm. Es sind Oligarchen wie Roman Abramowitsch, die von der Nähe zum Diktator profitieren; routinierte Apparatschiks wie Sergej Lawrow, die als Sprachrohr ihres Herrn zu dienen haben - oder Kyrill der Erste, der als Patriarch von Moskau seine Kirche zum Erfüllungsgehilfen einer Diktatur macht.

Britta Nielsen, en betroet medarbejder i Socialstyrelsen, blev i 2018 landskendt for at overføre næsten 121 mio. kr. til sig selv af de satspuljemidler, Folketinget har afsat til samfundets mest udsatte borgere. Svindlen foregik gennem 25 år, men ingen kolleger eller chefer anede uråd. Og ingen savnede de penge, som forsvandt. Emil Herskind var afdelingschef i Socialministeriet og fik ansvaret for at håndtere sagen. Det var ham, der skulle afdække sagens omfang og få socialministeren helskindet gennem forløbet.

È possibile amministrare bene Roma? No. Perché è altrettanto impossibile amministrare bene l'Italia. Nella capitale questa realtà si tocca con mano perché, a un insieme di regole assurde, che condiziona la vita di tutti i Comuni, le Regioni e gli enti locali, si somma una città con una geografia, un'estensione, una struttura istituzionale e burocratica tali da renderla ingovernabile anche per un politico ben intenzionato. Inoltre la presenza sul territorio urbano di tutti gli uffici pubblici e le sedi centrali di associazioni di categoria del Paese rende il quadro ancora più caotico.

The proud owner of a sprawling £14 million estate in the Cotswolds, boasting a stable of eventing horses, a fleet of supercars and neighbouring the royal family, Neil Woodford was the most celebrated and successful British investor of his generation.

Sí podía saberse lo que iba a ocurrir si Andrés Manuel López Obrador llegaba a la Presidencia.

I've believed for many years that the powers that be (whoever they are) who control most everything in America have worked overtime to turn the American Law Enforcement Officer into little more than a tool for the shadow government: a way to get around The Posse Comitatus Act.

What you are about to read is a follow-up to the first edition of this publication entitled Who Rigged the Bids: Combatting Procurement Fraud in the City of Brotherly Love.

En México, la corrupción de las grandes empresas es igual o peor que la de los gobernantes: algunas corporaciones no sólo mueven toneladas de dinero para burlar la ley, sino que lo hacen con total impunidad. Prácticamente nadie investiga o castiga a las transnacionales que reparten sobornos. Este libro—ganador del Premio de Periodismo Javier Valdez Cárdenas 2019—rompe el círculo vicioso de silencio y simulación y les pone nombre y apellido a las compañías señaladas por malas prácticas, explica los esquemas de la transa y las razones de la impunidad desatada.
