Global Standards of Market Civilization brings together leading
scholars, representing a range of political views, to investigate
how global 'standards of market civilization' have emerged, their
justification, and their political, economic and social impact. Key
chapters show how as the modern state system has evolved such
standards have also developed, incorporating the capacity for
social cooperation and self-government to which states must conform
in order to fully participate as legitimate members in
international society. This study analyzes their justification, and
their political, economic and social impact. Civilization is a term
widely used within modern political discourse its meaning, yet it
is poorly understood and misused. part I explores the idea of a
'standard of civilization', its implications for governance, and
the use of such standards in political theory and economic thought,
as well as its historical application part II presents original
case studies that demonstrate the emergence of such standards and
explore the diffusion of liberal capitalist ideas through the
global political economy and the consequences for development and
governance; the International Monetary Fund's capacity to formulate
a global standard of civilization in its reform programs; and
problems in the development of the global trade, including the
issue of intellectual property rights. This book will be of strong
interest to students and scholars in wide range of fields relating
to the study of globalization including: international political
economy; international political theory; international relations
theory; comparative political economy; international law;
historical sociology; and economic history.
