Publisher's Summary:

Reporter and author Stephen Handleman on this edition of Fresh Air. For the many bureaucrats, corrupt army generals, black market racketeers, and others who held power and wealth in the old Soviet system, making a buck has never been easier. Organized crime is in the downside of free enterprise in the new Russia. The Russian mob, "Red Fellas", to borrow a phrase from The New Republic, is the subject of the 1997 release Comrade Criminal: Russia's New Mafiya, by reporter Stephen Handleman.
