No, the word is fear. The Soviet empire was built on fear. Maintaining constant fear in the population was the Communist dictatorship strategy for staying in power.

I too thank Lord Donald ANDERSON for his excellent report. The tax lawyer Sergei Magnitsky has become a symbol of the fight against corruption.
