Rezensionen
Praise for the 8th Edition

"Cohn and Hira again set the standard in explaining the complex, evolving nature of the interaction between politics and economics in the international system. They strike the appropriate balance between our theories for understanding this interaction and the contemporary context for understanding those theories. The book is a must for students needing a solid, thought-provoking primer in global political economy."

--Robert Ostergard Jr., University of Nevada Reno

"This book adopts a unique approach to the study of IPE by incorporating theoretical perspectives into discussions of various current events, bridging abstract concepts with real-world issues. It is one of the most comprehensive textbooks on the subject and a must-read for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of global political economy."

-- Feng Sun, Troy University

Praise for Previous Editions

I have been using this wonderful text for the last few years for my upper division undergraduate course on Politics of the World Economy. This new edition brings all of the burning issues right up to date: the weight of China in the IPE, the immigration crisis in Africa and the Middle East, and the shift from multilateral to regional trade schemes. Global Political Economy gracefully weaves together theory and practice, and it strikes a perfect balance between institutions, interests and actors. I look forward to assigning this next edition.

-- Carol Wise, University of Southern California

With this new edition, Ted Cohn reaffirms his book's place among the very best texts available in the field of international political economy -- well organized, articulate, and certainly up to date. Students will find it both enlightening and refreshing.

-- Benjamin J. Cohen, University of California, Santa Barbara

Cohn continues to produce an excellent textbook; I wouldn't think of using another. Among textbook authors, only Cohn consistently returns to the theories in each empirical chapter, driving home how the lenses we use shape our understanding of the global political economy.

-- Kathleen J. Hancock, Colorado School of Mines

The seventh edition of Global Political Economy: Theory and Practice is a fully updated, comprehensive textbook that builds on the strengths of the earlier editions but has been updated with a discussion of the ongoing global economic crisis. It contains both an excellent discussion of theoretical debates as well as the main issue areas. Issues are explained in plain language for an easy understanding for university students. This book is an excellent text for courses on international political economy and the like.

-- Amy Verdun, University of Victoria
