ZeroZeroZero: Wie Kokain die Welt beherrscht

Geschrieben von Roberto Saviano und Frank Röth

Erzählt von Frank Röth

Kokain konsumieren Millionen Menschen in allen Gesellschaftsschichten. Die geheimen Geldströme, die das "weiße Erdöl" entfesselt, destabilisieren ganze Wirtschafssysteme – denn keine Investition ist rentabler. Roberto Saviano, der Zugang zu den brisantesten Quellen hat, enthüllt sieben Jahre nach dem Welterfolg von Gomorrha die Verstrickungen des Kokainhandels mit dem modernen Kapitalismus. Dabei gibt er von Kolumbien bis Russland, von den USA bis Deutschland den verschiedensten Protagonisten das Wort und entlarvt eine gigantische globale Schattenwirtschaft. Zero Zero Zero zeigt das Phänomen Kokain in seiner ganzen Breite auf.
Mit einem Extra-Kapitel über Kokain in Deutschland.

Rezensionen für ZeroZeroZero

[meisterpfriem · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Saviano writes with passion and complete commitment about the world-wide cocaine trade. Having put his life on the line by publishing Gomorrah 10 years ago he has to live under police protection, losing all spontaneity, unable to travel or visit any place, a shop, a restaurant … without elaborate security preparations. I never realized how much organized crime centering on the cocaine trade has penetrated and now dominates world economies to the extent that, without the truly enormous sums of ready cash to be laundered, many banks would not survive and the whole international financial sector would be in danger of collapse. Because it is the financial centre of the world he calls London the ‘crime capital’ of the world. Clearly the ‘war’ against the cocaine trade cannot and never will be won. S. states and I agree that legitimizing cocaine is the only solution. (A thought: Is the legitimizing of cocaine and abolition of the British overseas tax-havens - so convenient for washing dirty money - resisted because it would endanger the status of the London ‘City’ and the easy riches of those who run it?)It is a book that should be read by all who are prepared to look beyond their daily worries to look at and then worry about the state of the world today.
