Political Economy, Volume I: General Problems provides a systematic treatise on political economy. This book discusses the state of economic science and the course of economic development in different parts of the world. Organized into seven chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the social or political economy as the study of social laws governing the production and distribution of the material means of satisfying human needs. This text then examines the basic regularity encountered by political economy in its analysis of the social laws governing human economic activity, which is

The International Political Economy Yearbook will be published annually under the sponsorship of the International Political Economy Section of the International Studies Association at the Department of Political Science, Brigham Young University. The intent of the series is to describe and explain the structure and the dynamic operation of the international political economy and to explore their political, social, and economic impact on different countries, be they advanced market economies, newly industrializing countries, or underdeveloped countries. This first volume is an overview of the policy and research field of international political economy studies. It explores what international political economy is; what approaches and theories might broaden and deepen our understanding of the phenomena addressed; what perspectives seem inappropriate or misdirected; and why neither international relations scholars nor mainstream economists can any longer claim status as senior partners in the community of scholars and policymakers interested in these issues. It also addresses major policy problems confronting both advanced and developing countries, including commodity trade, foreign investment, regulation of multinational corporations, food shortages and other development problems, industrial crises in the United States and Europe, international debt, and the increased role of the state in different economies.

"In its relatively short life as a distinct academic discipline, international political economy (IPE) has become the quintessential interdisciplinary field. A contributed book, International Political Economy brings together a wide range of Canada's finest IPE scholars, offering a comprehensive, balanced introduction to the field of IPE, looking at theories, history, institutions, and topical analysis. With coverage of traditional and contemporary theories throughout, the book expertly integrates political science theory and analysis with economic fundamentals, using both to explore regional and issues analysis."--

THIS ARTICLE ATTEMPTS TO OUTLINE HOW A GREEN PERSPECTIVE WITHIN THE FIELD OF THE INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY (IPE) MIGHT BEST BE CHARACTERIZED. IT DESCRIBES THE GREENS' NORMATIVE PROJECT IN THE INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY, ARGUING THAT IT IS BEST SEEN AS A PROJECT AIMING TO CONSTRUCT A KIND OF "NEO-MEDIAEVAL" WORLD POLITICAL ECONOMIC ORDER. IT THEN DRAWS ON THIS DISCUSSION TO OUTLINE MORE FORMALLY THE WAYS IN WHICH THE GREENS' PERSPECTIVE WITHIN IPE IS DISTINCT FROM THE PERSPECTIVES OFFERED BY THE THREE TRADTIONAL SCHOOLS OF LIBERALISM, MARXISM, AND ECONOMIC NATIONALISM.

International Studies is a multidisciplinary field, which includes a long and rich tradition of studying both the political economy conditions of war, peace and security, and the impact of security concerns and war on economic developments. While the fragmentation of International Studies has tended to make the essentially interwoven nature of many processes invisible, over time, a number of important claims and hypotheses have been subjected to various empirical tests, especially during the last few decades. In this chapter, I am asking: what is it that we have learnt on the political economy conditions of war and peace, and of security more generally? What about the impact of security and war on the economy? To what extent has our learning about the political economy of security been cumulative? What should we make of the fact that major disagreements persist? Going through the basic arguments of liberal, nationalist, Marxian, underconsumptionist, Keynesian and Neorealist theories and various recent political economy of security studies, I conclude by arguing that capitalist market economy is not inherently peaceful, but involves mechanisms and processes that can give rise to processes of securitization and enemy-construction. While empirical studies have rendered no unequivocal support for any of the political economy utopias of harmony (liberal, Keynesian, Marxian, or Neorealist), they have stressed the importance of the possibility of resolving conflicts by means of peaceful changes. ; Peer reviewed
