Prior to the 1970s, few serious efforts were made to bridge the gap between economics and political science in the study of international relations. Systematic scholarly analysis of International Political Economy (IPE), emphasizing formal integration of elements of orthodox market and political analysis, is really of very recent origin. This volume brings together some of the most important research papers published in the modern field of IPE since its birth less than four decades ago, emphasizing work that has significantly advanced theoretical and analytical understandings. Coverage includes grand questions of systemic transformation and system governance as well as more narrowly focused explorations of the two most central issue-areas of the world economy, trade and money and finance. The introductory essay locates this selection of articles in the context of the field's broad evolution and development to date.

Review:
"Cohen has produced a well-crafted intellectual history of the development of the subdiscipline of international political economy."--M. Perelman, Choice

"Benjamin Cohen has written a marvelous brief introduction to the development of International Political Economy (IPE) as an academic discipline. . . . It will be read widely but needs, and deserves, to be read critically."--Bill Dunn, Journal of Australian Political Economy

"Benjamin Cohen has written an excellent book in an engaging and witty style. . . . I enjoyed reading the book, and liked how differences between the American and British schools were laid out."--Mina Baliamoune-Lutz, Eastern Economic Journal

From the Back Cover:

"A tour de force of the field of international political economy from its founding to the present with a focus on how individual personalities and real-world events merged to shape important debates. A key contributor himself, Cohen deftly probes the origins of this entirely new field of scholarship as a guide to its future."--David A. Lake, University of California, San Diego


"Engaging and highly accessible. This book offers the first comprehensive account of the origins and development of the academic discipline of international political economy. It is erudite, broad-ranging, respectful of the actors involved, sympathetic, and nuanced. This is the first book of its kind."--Ronen Palan, University of Birmingham


"I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. The writing is superb--witty and engaging. The substantive discussions clarify and summarize without oversimplifying. Cohen is an ideal guide for this entertaining journey through the history of the field."--Jonathan M. Crystal, Fordham University
