Description

This popular, up-to-date text provides a balanced, in-depth background to main IPE theoretical approaches, examines IPE issues in historical perspective, and discusses domestic-international linkages. Based on the assumption that we can only understand the broader implications of current IPE issues by examining them in a theoretical and historical context, this accessible introduction to IPE has been highly lauded by users and reviewers. It focuses on three major themes or challenges in the post-Cold War era-globalization, North-North relations and North-South relations-to tie concepts together for students. It has been completely updated to provide a contemporary look at global political economy.
