Scott Newton

Opis

By bringing a clear historical perspective to the study of the world economy since 1944, Scott Newton shows how it has changed over time in response to the balance of forces within and between countries, and is not simply destined for free market globalization or any other 'inevitable' fate.

Recenzje

'Scott Newton's The Global Economy is a godsend for all those who need to get their own minds - let alone their students' minds - around one of the most important yet complicated phenomena of the 20th century. This is "grand sweep history" at its best.' Peter Hennessy, Atlee Professor of Contemporary British History, Queen Mary, University of London
