Description
The Political Economy of International Relations by Robert Gilpin and Jean M. Gilpin The establishment of the post-World War II international institutional framework was a pivotal moment in world history, with the United States playing a crucial role in its creation. However, by the 1980s, growing economic nationalism in the US threatened the stability of these institutions. This book explores the complex relationship between politics and economics in international relations, arguing that a great power like the US is essential for fostering international cooperation. Gilpin examines the key role played by the creative use of power in supporting an institutional framework that created a world economy. He demonstrates how the influence of politics on the international economy was a crucial aspect of international relations, and how the decline of American support for international cooperation poses significant risks. This book remains a seminal work in the field of international political economy, providing a clear and insightful analysis of the complex relationships between politics and economics.
