Summary note

"Based on the assumption that we can only understand the broader implications of current international political economy issues by examining them in a theoretical and historical context, this accessible introduction to international political economy 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. This edition has been completely updated to provide a contemporary look at global political economy."--Jacket.
