Description

Taylor & Francis Global Political Economy Theory And Practice by Theodore H. Cohn

Praised for its authoritative coverage, Global Political Economy places the study of IPE in broad theoretical context and has been updated to cover the rise of populism, Brexit, the USMCA, US-China trade wars, tariffs, refugees and global migration, the Keynesian-monetarist debate, Fordism, automation, the "gig" economy, global value chains, climate change, cryptocurrencies, and the residual effects of global economic crises and regional relationships and impacts. Written by leading IPE scholar Theodore Cohn, now joined by his prolific colleague Andy Hira, this book equally emphasizes theory and practice to provide a framework for analyzing current events and long-term developments in the global economy. This text is suitable for both introductory and advanced IPE courses._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_New to the Eighth Edition_x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Expands upon the growing US-China competition in many areas of the global political economy._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Discusses the problems Brexit is posing for Britain and the European Union (EU). _x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Explores the growth of populism. _x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Focuses more on environmental degradation/climate change along with the increase in global migration._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Incorporates a new theme of South-South global economic relations._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Highlights the relationship among economics, geopolitics, and security issues._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Emphasizes the importance of global value chains._x000D_Looks at the potential for future global financial crises._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Updates and expands the number of tables, figures, and graphics throughout._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Provides an updated Test Bank and new PowerPoint slides in an Instructor's e-Resource._x000D_ _x000D_ Preface_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Acknowledgments_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Acronyms and Abbreviations_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Part I: Introduction and Overview_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 1: Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 2: Managing the Global Economy Since World War II: The Institutional Framework_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Part II: Theoretical Perspectives_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 3: Neomercantilism_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 4: Liberalism_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 5: Critical Perspectives_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Part III: Issue Areas_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 6: International Monetary Relations_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 7: Financial Crises_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 8: Global Trade Relations_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 9: Preferential Trade Agreements and the Global Trade Regime_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 10: Multinational Corporations and Global Production_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 11: International Development_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Part IV: Concluding Comments_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 12: Current Trends in the Global Political Economy_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Glossary_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Index_x000D_
