: fiind vorba de un cuvant de origina din idis comun, mahar ("macher') e cineva care "aranjeaza" lucrurile din umbra, prin sperturi, pile, "donatii", etc. NU un sef mafiot, si NU un lord de mahala. Din idis "machen - a face"

a patit-o si mahar! conform DEX-ului si dupa perceptia generala, si-a schimbat si "imbogatit" sensul :-)

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=slum lords
[A person who lords over a slum (crappy apartment builing, townhouse complex, etc). ie a stupid bastard landlord.
The slumlord came into my flat and was like "Where's my goddamned rent you nigger infested squirrel?!"]
O referinta foarte buna (pentru India si contextul in care acest termen este utilizat in prezent): cartea "Shantaram".
Cheers!

: Fara context mai mult, e probabil vorba de proprietarii terenurilor/locuintelor precum definitia termenului, si nu de mafiotii care controleaza mahalaua.

Definiţia din dicţionarul Oxford este clară: North American informal:
a landlord of slum property, typically one who charges extortionate rents.
Prin extrapolare sensul se poate extinde, desigur, la cel de crime boss (şef al interlopilor). În cazul acesta însă, mahalaua în cauză ar fi populată de o întreagă ierarhie de interlopi (nu doar de şefi).
A slum lord named Javed eventually puts further distance between Salim and his brother and the love of his life.
