Offering an accessible introduction to both the historical roots
and the contemporary dynamics of today's world economy, the
extensively revised sixth edition of this bestselling textbook
continues to lead the way in equipping students with the knowledge
required to make sense of the fast-paced discipline of Global
Political Economy. Illustrating the breadth of the subject, the
book's authors - both highly regarded experts in the field - show
how the national and international interact, while also placing an
emphasis on the historical evolution of the world economy in order
to appreciate the nuances of today's economic structures. The
global economy is traced from the Industrial Revolution through
each phase of a shifting world order to the modern day. Then
follows an engaging exploration of the dynamics of today's economy,
including: trade, production, finance, labour, gender, development,
the environment, security and governance. This takes into account
the latest developments in the global economy, from automation and
the challenges posed to the labour force, to artificial
intelligence and the increasing complex, global supply chains of
modern transnational firms. This is the most authoritative and
accessible textbook on global political economy, making it the
ideal companion for students at undergraduate and postgraduate
levels, on politics, international relations and related degrees.
New to this Edition: - Extensively updated to feature the latest
empirical developments, including rising economic nationalism, US
trade wars with China, and populism. - Brand new boxed features
illustrate the latest dynamics, including the impact of digital
technologies, artificial intelligence and automation, and the
growth and consequences of increasing inequality. - Greater
coverage of the sustained threats to the liberal international
order and likely future scenarios. Accompanying online resources

This book analyses the regional complexes of climate security in
the Pacific. Pacific Island States and Territories (PICTs) have
long been cast as the frontline of climate change and placed within
the grand architecture of global climate governance. The region
provides compelling new insights into the ways climate change is
constructed, governed, and shaped by (and in turn shapes), regional
and global climate politics. By focusing on climate security as it
is constructed in the Pacific and how this concept mobilises
resources and shapes the implementation of climate finance, the
book provides an up-to-date account of the way regional
organizations in the Pacific have contributed to the search for
solutions to the problem of climate insecurity. In the context of
the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris in
2015, the focus of this book on regional governance offers a
concise and innovative account of climate politics in the
prevailing global context and one with implications for the study
of climate security in other regions, particularly in the
developing world.
Economic Evaluation in Genomic Medicine introduces health economics
and economic evaluation to genomic clinicians and researchers,
while also introducing the topic to health economists. Each chapter

to enhance the learning process. The text can easily be used as
course material for related graduate and undergraduate courses,

application of economic evaluation to genomic healthcare and
precision medicine.

Following the Second World War, the United States would become the
leading 'neoliberal' proponent of international trade
liberalization. Yet for nearly a century before, American foreign
trade policy was dominated by extreme economic nationalism. What
brought about this pronounced ideological, political, and economic
about-face? How did it affect Anglo-American imperialism? What were
the repercussions for the global capitalist order? In answering
these questions, The 'Conspiracy' of Free Trade offers the first
detailed account of the controversial Anglo-American struggle over
empire and economic globalization in the mid- to late-nineteenth
century. The book reinterprets Anglo-American imperialism through
the global interplay between Victorian free-trade cosmopolitanism
and economic nationalism, uncovering how imperial expansion and
economic integration were mired in political and ideological
conflict. Beginning in the 1840s, this conspiratorial struggle over
political economy would rip apart the Republican Party, reshape the
Democratic Party, and redirect Anglo-American imperial expansion
for decades to come.

The contest to shape global governance is increasingly being conducted on a number of levels and among a diverse set of actors. This book argues that increasing engagement between international institutions and sectors of civil society is producing a new form of international organization. The authors study the relationship between the IMF, World Bank, and World Trade Organisation, and environmental, labor, and women's movements, providing a rich analysis of the institutional response to social movement pressure.
