Russia still hasn’t gotten the hang of capitalism and democracy, but that doesn’t mean it’s a backwater when it comes to investment opportunities. Dean LeBaron counts himself among the optimistic few, having observed the country firsthand for years. He predicts that Russia’s growing middle class will spark rapid economic expansion once oil and natural gas prices resume their inevitable climb. Russia is a country of great contradictions. Lavish new office towers reflect its ambitions to become a modern superpower, but its economy is constrained by its Communist past. Industrial production has been weakening ever since the collapse of the Soviet Union, but Russia’s enormous reserves of oil and natural gas obscure the shrinkage. Its leaders talk endlessly of economic modernization, but nothing seems to change. Critics contend that real change won’t come until the country is run by a new generation, one that hasn’t lived under a Communist system. Even so, Russia is not bereft of investment opportunities, and as real progress finally takes hold in the years to come, those opportunities will multiply. As for the here and now, the $280 billion stimulus package rolled out in response to the global financial meltdown of 2008 has helped to shore up Russia’s domestic economy and stabilize the ruble. Foreign investors see rebounding oil prices as a good reason to be optimistic about Russia’s near-term future.

After awakening from its long communist slumber, Russia in the 1990s was a place where everything and everyone was for sale, and fortunes could be made and lost overnight. Into this free-market maelstrom stepped rookie Wall Street Journal reporter Matthew Brzezinski, who was immediately pulled into the mad world of Russian capitalism -- where corrupt bankers and fast-talking American carpetbaggers presided over the biggest boom and bust in financial history. Brzezinski's adventures take him from the solid-gold bathroom fixtures of Moscow's elite, to the last stop on the Trans-Siberian railway, where poverty-stricken citizens must buy water by the pail from the local crime lord, and back to civilization, to stumble into a drunken birthday bash for an ultra-nationalist politico. It's an irreverent, lurid, and hilarious account of one man's tumultuous trek through a capitalist market gone haywire -- and a nation whose uncertain future is marked by boundless hope and foreboding despair.

Since the earliest development of states, groups of people escaped or were exiled. As capitalism developed, people tried to escape capitalist constraints connected with state control. This powerful book gives voice to three communities living at the edges of capitalism: Cossacks on the Don River in Russia; Zapatistas in Chiapas, Mexico; and prisoners in long-term isolation since the 1970s. Inspired by their experiences visiting Cossacks, living with the Zapatistas, and developing connections and relationships with prisoners and ex-prisoners, Andrej Grubacic and Denis O’Hearn present a uniquely sweeping, historical, and systematic study of exilic communities engaged in mutual aid. Following the tradition of Peter Kropotkin, Pierre Clastres, James Scott, Fernand Braudel and Imanuel Wallerstein, this study examines the full historical and contemporary possibilities for establishing self-governing communities at the edges of the capitalist world-system, considering the historical forces that often militate against those who try to practice mutual aid in the face of state power and capitalist incursion.
