Description
Book SynopsisThe most balanced blend of empirical material and critical analysis from the leading figures in Global Political Economy.
Trade ReviewReview from previous edition 'Ravenhill's Global Political Economy is extremely accessible and the quality of the analysis is superb. Most importantly, though, it helps students to unpack big claims.' * Dr Huw Macartney, University of Birmingham *
'This text just keeps getting better and better. The coverage is comprehensive, thoroughly revised to keep up with contemporary developments, and the quality of the scholarship is uniformly high. Students could not ask for a more incisive and thoughful introduction to the study of global political economy.' * Professor Benjamin Cohen, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA *
'Global Political Economy is balanced in its presentation of debates, and rigorous in its arguments, providing an excellent guide for students in understanding international political economy.' * Dr Kelly Gerard, University of Western Australia *
Without a doubt, this is the leading textbook for any student of global political economy. Ravenhill brings together many of the leading scholars in an unrivaled collection. * Dr Iain Hardie, The University of Edinburgh, UK *
This edition continues to provide students with the most comprehensive introduction to global political economy on the market, bar none. I value its thoroughness, clarity, and the balance it strikes between theory and practice. * Professor Randall Germain, Carleton University, Canada *
