This important reference collection includes the seminal literature
on the political economy of natural resources - broadly defined as
not only minerals but also energy sources and agriculture. It
includes key articles and papers on the politics of international
markets in these resources, the effects of these markets on the
world economy and on the domestic political economy as well as the
domestic politics of policymaking on international resources.
Governing Global Networks explores the mutual interests that have sustained the regulatory regimes for four major international service industries--shipping, air transport, telecommunications, and postal services. The authors argue that states have been concerned with two sometimes conflicting goals: facilitating the flow of international commerce; and maintaining the prerogatives of state sovereignty. This analysis of the impact of the breaking up of cartels and of deregulation is an important contribution to theoretical debates in the study of international organizations and international political economy.
Governing Global Networks argues that most international regimes
are grounded in states' mutual cooperation, and not in the dictates
of the most powerful states. It focuses on the regimes for four
important international industries - shipping, air transport,
telecommunications and postal services. Of particular importance to
these regimes have been states' interests in both the free flow of
commerce and their policy autonomy. The authors examine the
relationship between these potentially conflicting goals. In
particular they trace the impact of deregulation, which has led
some states increasingly to place gains from economic openness
ahead of their desire to maintain a high degree of control of their
own economies; and to the decline of the traditional cartel
elements of these regimes. This analysis is an important
contribution to theoretical debates between neo-realists and
neo-liberals in the study of international organisations and
international political economy.
