Introduction to International Political Economy Summary

Introduction to International Political Economy: United States Edition by David N. Balaam

For courses in International Political Economy in departments of Political Science and Economics.

This comprehensive introduction to international political economy clearly shows students how politics and economics come together in today's global environment. The text demonstrates how an understanding of IPE can help students make sense of global news, business investments, and government policies-by presenting the theories, institutions, and relationships found in IPE in simple ways that retain the complexity of the world issues and intellectual problems addressed.
