International Political Economy : An Introduction to Approaches, Regimes, and…
There are many books on international political economy, or IPE for short. Not surprisingly, each contains its own assumptions and views about the key concepts, issues, and concerns of IPE. Sometimes the authors of these various books hold the same assumptions and share the same, or at least very similar, views about how the world works. Sometimes they don’t. In fact, as we will see in a few …
