Gideon Rachman | Global Expert Economist

His previous book, Zero-Sum World(2010) examined the changing dynamics of international relations. It was published under the title Zero-Sum Future in the US in 2011. The New York Times called it “perhaps the best one-volume account now available of the huge post-communist spread of personal freedom and economic prosperity.”

The Independent called it “an important, timely book that should be obligatory reading for all interested in what is happening beyond our shores.”

Gideon Rachman received the 2016 Orwell Prize for journalism, Britain’s most prestigious prize for political writing, and the 2016 European Press Prize: Commentator Award. He was named as foreign-affairs commentator of the year in the UK Comment Awards for 2010.
