Misha Glenny

Misha Glenny is a journalist, historian and broadcaster whose work explores organised crime, geopolitics, cyber warfare and the fault lines of the modern world. A former BBC Central Europe correspondent, he reported extensively on the collapse of Yugoslavia and the wars of the Balkans, experiences that shaped several of his most influential books, including McMafia and The Balkans. His work examines the hidden systems that connect politics, technology, finance and criminal networks across borders. Combining investigative journalism with historical analysis, he has become one of the most perceptive interpreters of global instability and the unintended consequences of globalisation.
