  • The University of Chicago Smuggler States: Poland, Latvia, Estonia, and Contraband Trade Across the Soviet Frontier, 1919-1924
    THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO SMUGGLER STATES: POLAND, LATVIA, ESTONIA, AND CONTRABAND TRADE ACROSS THE SOVIET FRONTIER, 1919-1924 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE DIVISION OF THE SOCIAL SCIENCES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY ANDREY ALEXANDER SHLYAKHTER CHICAGO, ILLINOIS DECEMBER 2020 Илюше Abstract Smuggler States: Poland, Latvia, Estonia, and Contraband Trade Across the Soviet Frontier, 1919-1924 What happens to an imperial economy after empire? How do economics, security, power, and ideology interact at the new state frontiers? Does trade always break down ideological barriers? The eastern borders of Poland, Latvia, and Estonia comprised much of the interwar Soviet state’s western frontier – the focus of Moscow’s revolutionary aspirations and security concerns. These young nations paid for their independence with the loss of the Imperial Russian market. Łódź, the “Polish Manchester,” had fashioned its textiles for Russian and Ukrainian consumers; Riga had been the Empire’s busiest commercial port; Tallinn had been one of the busiest – and Russians drank nine-tenths of the potato vodka distilled on Estonian estates. Eager to reclaim their traditional market, but stymied by the Soviet state monopoly on foreign trade and impatient with the slow grind of trade talks, these countries’ businessmen turned to the porous Soviet frontier. The dissertation reveals how, despite considerable misgivings, their governments actively abetted this traffic. The Polish and Baltic struggles to balance the heady profits of the “border trade” against a host of security concerns shaped everyday lives and government decisions on both sides of the Soviet frontier.

  • 2012 Annual Report
    TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS 2012 represented our 20th consecutive record year of increased gross sales. Gross sales rose to $2.37 billion in 2012, from $1.95 billion in 2011. This achievement was primarily attributable to increased sales of our Monster Energy® drinks, both internationally and in the United States. In 2012, our Monster Rehab® line continued to make good progress and sales of this line more than doubled over 2011, when the line was launched. Additionally, in 2012 we launched what is arguably our most successful individual line extension ever, Monster Energy® Zero Ultra, in a 16 oz. white can that has a special unique textured ink finish, which has proved to be very successful and has received positive responses from consumers. During 2012, we continued to expand the distribution of our Monster Energy® drinks into a number of new international markets, the most notable of which was Japan, where sales exceeded our expectations. Additional positive news on the international front was the conclusion by us of a new distribution agreement in December with Ambev for distribution of Monster Energy® drinks in Brazil, which is the largest energy drink market in South America. Distribution with Ambev commenced at the end of January 2013. We are encouraged by early results achieved by Ambev. In 2012, gross sales outside of the United States increased to $513.9 million from $381.0 million in the prior year. Our Monster Energy® drinks are now sold in approximately 90 countries and territories. We are continuing with our plans to expand the sale of Monster Energy® drinks into additional countries internationally and are continuing to focus on introducing lower calorie drinks to meet increased demand from consumers for such products.
