What constitutes Global Political Economy? In whose interest is GPE constructed, and by whom? How can injustices in GPE best be redressed? These are some of the key questions addressed in the 7th edition of this highly regarded highly regarded textbook. As an ever-evolving field subject to constant changes and developments, the new edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject written by leading experts in the field. Edited by Dr Erin Hannah,the 7th edition surveys major contemporary issues and debates in GPE while being attuned to the silences, marginalizations, and exclusions that predominate the field. By integrating a wide range of theoretical approaches, rich empirical material, non-western viewpoints and diversity of contributors, the 7th edition provides enhanced coverage of the central axes of inequality in GPE and centers topics such as colonialism, race, gender, North-South divides and everyday life.
This is by far the best introduction to key issues, concepts, and themes in Global Political Economy. * Susanne Soederberg, Professor and Canada Research Chair in Just and Inclusive Cities, Queen's University, Canada *
Global Political Economy has always been a definitive statement on current thinking on the complex interplay between global politics and economics. Thoroughly updated to reflect the state of the art and frontier thinking, Hannah and Ravenhill have yet again created an indispensable text. This is a book that demands serious attention and a place on the shelf of all interested in world politics today. * Rorden Wilkinson, Professor of International Political Economy and Deputy Vice-Chancellor Academic, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia *
Erin Hannah and John Ravenhill's fully revised 7th edition of Global Political Economy delves into new areas of study within GPE. By juxtaposing overarching 'big picture' GPE topics with marginalized perspectives and intertwining themes of gender, race, and colonialism, it provides students with a much-needed starting point for developing understandings of contemporary global political economic transformations and challenges. * Juanita Elias, Professor in International Political Economy, University of Warwick, UK *
With expected revisions and updates, this well-regarded textbook continues to provide accessible, authoritative and wide-ranging coverage of GPE that importantly features historically informed studies. And beyond expectations, the 7th edition delivers an exceptional contribution by addressing the fraught terrain of rapidly changing - indeed, field-transforming - socio-cultural, technological and political developments. The latter confound conventional approaches, but they confront our students and must be engaged. Highly recommended; even the glossary is exceptional! * V Spike Peterson, Ph.D., Professor Emeritx of International Relations and Affiliated Faculty in the Department of Gender and Womens Studies and and the LGBTQ+ Institute *
