Rezensionen
Praise for International Political Economy

Lairson and Skidmore's invaluable textbook captures the profound dynamism in the international political economy, provides a sophisticated synthesis of the intersection of politics and economics, and treats the student with respect even as it explains complicated issues or concepts. This new text incorporates the 2008 global fiscal crisis, the full emergence of China as a global power, and the ever-changing politics of global inequality, sustainable development, and environmental diplomacy. This book will be a welcome addition to the international political economy classroom!

Gregory White, Smith College





This book is by far the most comprehensive, insightful, and accessible introduction to the rapidly expanding field of international political economy. The authors expertly draw upon both theoretical perspectives and real-world experience to offer an analysis of global political economy that is unsurpassed by any other textbook.

Francis Adams, Old Dominion University





This is probably the best textbook treatment of the international political economy field, and ideal for courses on IPE or globalization. Lairson and Skidmore provide students with needed background in political science theory and the history of globalization; include an excellent discussion of economic concepts necessary to study the politics of trade, finance, and development; and then apply these concepts to the central questions of modern globalization.

Sean D. Ehrlich, Florida State University

Lairson and Skidmore offer a first-rate introduction to the study of international political economy that provides students with a wealth of perspective and information about the causes and consequences of globalization. Today's students will be well-served to begin their analysis of the past, present, and future of global economic relations with this excellent text.

Orfeo Fioretos, Temple University
