TEXTBOOK

International Political Economy Contrasting World Views Raymond C. Miller, San Francisco State University, USA ‘A landmark book by one of the most prominent scholars on political economy, International Political Economy is a must-read.’ – William H. Newell, Executive Director, Association for Integrative Studies & Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, USA ‘Ray Miller carefully outlines three competing visions of international political economy. No other text in the field comes close to providing such a detailed and even-handed treatment of these three visions. Students using this text should thus be able to choose among these perspectives on their merits, and indeed integrate elements of each in order to generate a more holistic and nuanced understanding of IPE.’ – Rick Szostak, Professor of Economics, University of Alberta, Canada

‘This is a textbook that will be appreciated by both teachers and students of international political economy, "unpacking" the assumptions that underlie major schools of thought in IPE and explaining how these connect to their analyses and policy prescriptions. Its full discussion of Keynesian perspectives, as well as its treatment of vital global environmental issues and critical "green IPE" perspectives - make it an excellent choice for undergraduate courses.’ – Glenn Fieldman, Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies, San Francisco State University, USA This textbook is the perfect short introduction to the fundamental theories and issues of international political economy (IPE). It equips students with the necessary skills and knowledge to understand this complex and fascinating area. Engaging with both classical theories and the main contemporary debates, this is the ideal starting point for the study of IPE for students of international political economy, global governance and international economics.

Globalization North-South Perspectives John Glenn, University of Southampton, UK ’This is an excellent book and one that represents a significant contribution to the existing literature.’ – Nana K. Poku, University of Bradford, UK ’John Glenn makes a valuable contribution to the third wave of globalization studies. With a particular focus on the position of the South his work presents significant challenges to the orthodoxies of both sceptics and advocates of globalization alike. It therefore deserves to be widely read.’ – Professor Tony McGrew, Professor of International Relations and Head of the School of Social Sciences, University of Southampton, UK Rather than claim that there exists a common concept of globalization that all parties can agree to, this book seeks to examine some of the conceptions and the way in which they render different interpretations of particular aspects of globalization. John Glenn examines five issue areas affected by globalization: the economy, sovereignty, civil society, governance and communication. In so doing, the book aims to articulate certain questions within each area, which will allow for some judgment to be made concerning the differing perspectives on globalization. 2007: 234x156: 304pp Hb: 978-0-415-25096-2: £75.00 Pb: 978-0-415-25097-9: £19.99 eBook: 978-0-203-93919-2 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY

Routledge Handbook of International Political Economy International Political Economy as a Global Conversation Edited by Mark Blyth, Johns Hopkins University, USA This Handbook gives readers an overview of the range and scope of international political economy scholarship by mapping the different regional schools of IPE and noting the distinctive way IPE is practised and conceptualized around the world. It examines, in a series of introductory chapters written by leading figures in each region, the evolution of IPE in the US, Canada, the UK, Asia, and Australia. These introductory chapters map out the contending approaches and key concerns that exist within each regional school. In each regional section, following the introductory chapter, the contributors tackle key areas of IPE scholarship such as trade and development, finance, and global governance/globalization. Each chapter is written by an established scholar and showcases the particular approach(es) highlighted in the region-specific introduction.

Globalization as Evolutionary Process

The Globalization of Environmental Crisis Edited by Jan Oosthoek and Barry K. Gills, both at University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK Previously published as a special issue of Globalizations, this collection of essays addresses what is arguably the most pressing and urgent issue of our day – the continuing development of global environmental crises and the need for new and urgent responses to them by the world community.

Modeling Global Change Edited by George Modelski, University of Washington, USA, Tessaleno Devezas, University of Beira Interior, Covilhã, Portugal and William R. Thompson, Indiana University, Bloomington, USA This volume brings together leading international experts from a range of disciplines to develop a longterm analysis to address the problems of globalization. The editors and contributors develop a framework for understanding the origins and trajectory of contemporary world trends, constructing testable and verifiable models of globalization. They demonstrate how the evolutionary approach allows us to view globalization as an enterprise of the human species as a whole focusing on the analytical problem of global change and the rules governing those changes. The emphasis is not on broad-based accounts of the course of world affairs but, selectively, on processes that reshape the social of the human species, the making of world opinion and the innovations that animate these developments. This innovative and important volume will be of interest to students and scholars across the social sciences concerned with the phenomenon of globalization.

The WTO after Hong Kong

The Crisis of Global Environmental Governance

Progress in, and Prospects for, the Doha Development Agenda

Towards a New Political Economy of Sustainability Edited by Jacob Park, Green Mountain College, USA, Ken Conca, University of Maryland, USA and Matthias Finger, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Switzerland Series: Environmental Politics Taking a critical perspective, rooted in political economy, regulation theory, and postsovereign international relations, this book explores questions concerning the governance of environmental sustainability in a globalizing economy. With contributions from leading international scholars, the book offers a comprehensive framework on globalization, governance, and sustainability, and examines institutional mechanisms and arrangements to achieve sustainable environmental governance. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of political science, international studies, political economy and environmental studies.

Key features include: • current failures in the framework of global environmental governance • the problematic relationship between sustainability and globalization • controversies of development and the environment that have led to new processes of institution building • the marketization of environmental policy-making; stakeholder politics and environmental policymaking • transnational actors; and processes of multi-level global governance.

Edited by Donna Lee, University of Birmingham, UK and Rorden Wilkinson, University of Manchester, UK ‘Lee and Wilkinson have put together a classic volume on where the Doha Development Agenda stands after Hong Kong. The authors are eminent; the material is up-to-date; the range of coverage is wide; the analysis is serious. The result is an indispensable account of important events for all who struggle to follow what is going on within the WTO.’ – Anthony Payne, University of Sheffield, UK Selected Contents: 1.

’Katherine Marshall sets out neither to praise the Bank nor to bury it, but to provide an accessible guide to how it works – in theory and on the ground. Her book succeeds admirably. For the uninitiated it is the best guide available; and even Bank champions and Bank bashers will – or should – learn enough to make their arguments more nuanced.’ - Robert Wade, London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London, UK

David A. Deese, Boston College, USA ’World Trade Politics is a masterful work of historical analysis that makes a signal contribution to the field of International Political Economy. Combining meticulous empirical research with an unusually comprehensive reading of the formal literature, Deese develops an integrated theory of political leadership in international negotiations that is at once eclectic and nuanced. His tracing of the evolution of the GATT/WTO regime has applicability far beyond the issue of trade relations alone.’ - Benjamin Jerry Cohen, Louis G.
