ISBN: 9781349269051 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Written in the context of contemporary theoretical debate in international political economy, this book overturns a number of myths about the political economy of trade in one of the oldest areas of industry. In this way the author systematically links the changing characteristics of the trade regime to structural change and adjustment in global industry.

Revolutionary Horizons: Regional Foreign Policy in Post-Khomeini Iran
ISBN: 9781349234431 / Angielski / Miękka / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study examines the sources, characteristics and implications of post-Khomeini Iran's foreign policy. It concentrates on two geographic 'zones of interest': one composed of the countries which surround Iran; the other comprised of Islamic governments and movements beyond Iran's borders. It argues that fears, not just ambitions, have yielded a policy increasingly co-operative (especially in the economic sphere) yet in some respects still confrontational.

Domestic Regulations and U.S. Exports
ISBN: 9781523423750 / Angielski / Miękka / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The regulatory compliance costs of manufacturing firms often take the form of fixed costs of production, and they may reduce the firms' competitiveness, including their competitiveness in export markets. Yet most models of the impact of regulatory policy on trade flows are based on economic models with constant returns to scale and perfect competition that are not structured to allow for fixed costs of production. If, to make due, policy modelers represent regulatory costs as purely variable costs, then this assumption will dictate the prediction of the economic analysis: an increase in...

Subsidy Regulation and State Transformation in North America, the GATT and the Eu
ISBN: 9781349258321 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recent international subsidy regulation is contributing to a dual transformation of the state. The state is increasingly liberal as expenditure is channelled into particular activities and it is less sovereign as key decision-making authority is transferred to international institutions. Subsidy conflicts emerge as the attempts by states, firms and social forces to adapt to an increasingly global economy collide with variations of liberal development models. This study examines the distinct subsidy arrangements in North America, the GATT and the European Union to highlight this change in...

ISBN: 9781349270576 / Angielski / Miękka / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book reassesses international functionalism as an approach to global politics.

Chapters examine the early development of functionalism and apply functionalist insights to issues, problems and conflicts in contemporary global governance.
