What has been the impact of globalization on development? This book finds answers to this question in the field of international political economy. Thus, the book explores the way states have managed economic globalization - from positions of strength or weakness. In doing so, key themes emerge: new geographies of development, the enduring need for state action in the economy, and the political contestation of the very meaning of development. Global Encounters brings fresh views of development and globalization, which will be welcomed by students and researchers alike.

Global Encounters explores new thinking about development at the global level. Bringing together leading scholars, the book investigates the ways in which development has become a significant consideration in International Political Economy. As such, it engages with a series of global encounters, between development studies, IPE and globalization: the state and global development; civil society networks and changing geographies of power and governance; global designs of regulatory change and more specific interests and agencies.
GRAHAM HARRISON is Senior Lecturer in Politics at the University of Sheffield, UK. An editor of New Political Economyand Review of African Political Economy, his most recent book is The World Bank in Africa: the Construction of Governance States.
