Mehr zum Buch

The book critiques the fragmentation of Comparative and International Political Economy, arguing that this separation hampers the understanding of contemporary capitalism. It introduces a theory of Second Image International Political Economy (IPE), building on Kenneth Waltz's concepts and classical theories by Gourevitch and Katzenstein. By integrating recent developments in Comparative Capitalism and Growth Model analysis, the author explores key topics in Global Political Economy, such as security, finance, trade, and regional integration, demonstrating the theory's relevance and applicability.
