Book description

How do politics and international economic law interact with each other? Financial crises and shifts in global economic patterns have refocused our attention on how the fingerprints of the 'visible hand' can be seen all over the institutions that underpin the rules of globalization. From trade and investment to finance, governments are under pressure to enforce, resist and rewrite international economic law. Lawyers have seldom given enough attention to the influence of politics on law, whereas political scientists have had an on-again, off-again fascination with how the law influences relations among states. This book leads the way toward filling this interdisciplinary gap, through a series of important studies written by leaders in the field on specific problems in international economic relations. The book demonstrates a variety of ways in which the international political-economic nexus may be researched and understood.

Reviews

'In addition to its direct relevance to events today, the book also has a timeless quality as it considers the role of politics across much of the very large International Economic Law field. The volume, however, is well organized to bring order out of that potential chaos. Tomer Broude, Amy Porges, and Marc Busch have done an excellent job dividing the world of politics and international economic law into five discrete and meaningful sections, analyzing the role of politics in the areas of trade, investment, finance, dispute settlement, and foreign policy.'
