When the hammer and sickle came down in late 1991, Russia’s feverish new market opened for business. From banking to breweries, sectors emerged out of nowhere, in a country that had never had a functioning economy. For the next three turbulent decades, a wild, proto-capitalist free-for-all transformed Russian society. Then, in 2022, Putin launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The market started to collapse; Western firms fled Moscow’s skyscrapers. No country this large had ever remade itself so dizzyingly – now, just as dramatically, it was over. The intervening decades had seen phenomenal successes and crushing failures; the creation and destruction of enormous fortunes. How did it all happen? Zero Sum brings to life the complex, vivid colour of one of the greatest experiments in the history of global commerce. What have businesses learnt—or failed to learn—from this adventure, both about Russia and about dynamics between countries and companies in the face of relentless change?

The author estimates that 98.5% of the American population acknowledges the government de facto as being the true and lawful government, which is far from the truth. The government de facto is not the true and lawful government, and the American people are not mandated to be citizens of the government de facto. The unlawful government de facto willfully neglected to inform the American people that they have a choice of two governments, that coexist, in this great country of ours. Why is the government de facto hiding this information from the American people?
