* Do we work for social media? * Why do we go into debt? * How is
desire manufactured in fast fashion? * How are our diets governed?
* Who owns what in the sharing economy? I-PEEL: The International
Political Economy of Everyday Life provides a new introduction to
the field of IPE by locating it in our daily experiences. By using
topics such as social media, debt, food, and clothes as thematic
entry points, this textbook shows how concepts from IPE can be used
to understand and question the world around us. Eight core chapters
each start with a discussion of an everyday object or practice
linked to that topic, including social media influencing, student
debt, chocolate, and fast fashion. From there the chapters open out
to discuss broader questions that speak to the core themes of IPE
and its study of power, wealth, and global capitalism. Each chapter
ends with a pair of learning activities, such as creating your own
meme (chapter 8, Humour), to help apply what you have read. These
are accompanied by student-voice podcasts, in which current IPE
students discuss how they approached the activity. Developed by the
creators of the popular teaching tool www.i-peel.org: I-PEEL: The
International Political Economy of Everyday Life is a
ground-breaking, exciting, and engaging new approach to IPE that
places you at the centre of knowledge production. The first edition
includes a wealth of embedded digital resources, which are
accessible through the enhanced e-book, and are viewable in a
university's VLE. The online student resources include: - Videos
from the authors introducing the I-PEEL approach - Quickfire quiz
questions - Author chapter-introduction podcasts - Reflective
multiple-choice questions - Support for tackling the chapter's
learning activities - Student reflection podcasts - Web links to
relevant blogs, debates, and videos - An interactive flashcard
glossary The online digital lecturer resources include: - A guide
to the I-PEEL approach - Customisable PowerPoint slides
