About this product

Product Information

States Versus Markets shows that globalization is not a novel phenomenon but a recurrent process whereby markets have, since the sixteenth century, periodically redistributed economic activity. This revised and updated new edition takes account of the new rise of Asia and the global financial crisis originating in the US housing finance system.

Like a fine wine, this book is getting ever better with age. Every previous edition of States Versus Markets has excelled in communicating what the world looked like at that particular time. The new edition works exceptionally well in doing exactly the same for a world undergoing incredibly large political change., States Versus Markets has long been essential reading for those who seek to understand globalization and its periodic struggles with global imbalances and financial volatility. Professor Schwartz has now done it for the third time, and in keeping with his record this new third edition is yet better and richer than earlier excellence. Unlike more simplistic accounts, this highly approachable work offers a clear understanding of how and where 'globalization' came from and what it actually means for contemporary societies, gently debunking well-worn myths along the way. It is not only an impressive work of scholarship but also a pleasure to read, culminating in a dramatic account of financial crisis and the future of the global political economy., This edition improves on an already outstanding text. What Schwartz does here is highly unusual and highly rewarding: he draws students into an adventure in learning that conveys knowledge about both the origins and evolution of a global political economy and the development of IPE as a branch of learning. And he brings it up to-date in a manner that places students at the center of important contemporary debates. If students have a choice of textbooks, this is the one., There is no better advanced introduction to the politics of the global economy than States Versus Markets. Conceptually sophisticated but accessible, the book achieves a rare balance between depth and breadth., "This edition improves on an already outstanding text.

It brilliantly combines conceptual rigour, historical depth, and empirical breadth within a powerful framing of how overlapping forms of state and market power have shaped the politics of globalization. I can think of no better introduction to political economy." -- Jeremy Green, University of Cambridge, UK "Like a fine wine, this book is getting ever better with age.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
