How should students be introduced to GPE in an era of massive global transformation? The text focuses on the transformations themselves, offering a more global perspective and covering a wider range of issues and concepts than most other texts. A very timely, accessible, and exciting introduction to the field!
This is an ambitious book that has had a long time coming. Leiteritz, Chenou and Urrego Sandoval must be congratulated for offering such a wide-ranging view of global political economy. Bringing together the many roots of GPE, this text offers an exciting opportunity to reflect on the fragility of global economic flows and relationships in the new era of evolving power shifts.
Pick this new textbook up for a lucid and original overview of the world order. It lays out the foundations of the present world, and goes on to emphasise features – especially problems – that are new. So we have the Anthropocene, the energy transition, illicit economies, cryptocurrencies, commodification of personal data, global health threats, and more. To be enjoyed not only by students but by anyone who appreciates the company of provocative insights into today’s GPE.
