This collection makes a valuable theoretical and empirical contribution to the study of Political Economy. The book covers a wide range of approaches currently in vogue, coupled with an exploration of areas in commonality, thus rendering it a more effective introduction to Political Economy than many of the purpose written, but highly partial, existing texts. The individual papers, while summarizing the established literature in each field, also contribute much that is new and of considerable value to the further development of the subject.
