Long description:
This reader is a collection of primary readings that introduces students to international political economy (ipe), an area of study concerned with the relationship between the two dominant forms of social organization in the modern world: 'the state' and 'the market'. Divided into five parts ranging from Adam Smith's theory of the invisible hand to recent discussions of hemispheric integration, it contains thirty-five unabridged selections that highlight the historical development, major theoretical debates, and practical issues within ipe. Each section opens with a concise introduction that presents key concepts and concludes with study questions and annotated suggestions for further reading.
