Remaking the Global Economy offers a state -of-the-art survey of geographical perspectives on the restructuring and reorganization of the global economy. With contributions from leading figures in the globalization debate, the book explores the latest thinking and research, as well as the enduring controversies, across a range of interrelated issues, including:
- firm strategies and business knowledge
- interactions between firms and nation states
- production and innovation systems
- transnationalism and labour markets
- state restructuring.
Each of the specially commissioned chapters presents interdisciplinary insights into the complex processes of economic globalization and their impact on the organization of firms, markets, industries, regions, and institutions. An integrated and comprehensive account, this is a résumé of the latest work in the literature on globalization that will provide a detailed map of the geography of the global economy.

His recent books include Offshore: Exploring the Worlds of Global Outsourcing (2017, Oxford), Fast Policy: Experimental statecraft at the Thresholds of Neoliberalism (2015, Minnesota, with Nik Theodore), The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to Economic Geography (2012, Wiley-Blackwell, coedited with Trevor Barnes & Eric Sheppard), and Constructions of Neoliberal Reason (2010, Oxford).
