Description
Contagious Capitalism: Globalization and the Politics of Labor in China
This book examines the evolution of international cooperation in the world political economy, focusing on the institutions that have facilitated decentralized cooperation among nations. Mary Elizabeth Gallagher explores how the decline of a single dominant power affects cooperation, challenging the idea that the loss of hegemony makes cooperation impossible.
Through a comprehensive analysis of international regimes, Gallagher argues that these institutions are not weak substitutes for world government, but rather devices for promoting cooperation among nations with competing interests.
