(His) analysis of the failure of the IFA leads to a series of prescriptions for the regulation of international finance. Recommended. D. C. Messerschmidt, Lynchburg College, Choice, September 2009 A refreshing perspective on international finance that will be of major value to those of us interested in finance and the global development of capitalism. Andreas Jansson, Vaxjoe University, Sweden. This book could scarcely be more pertinent ... Discipline in the Global Economy? is a fascinating and original guide. Professor Robert Wade, London School of Economics and Politics [This book] provides a telling indictment of the way international financial regulation was high-jacked by a particularly virulent form of market fundamentalism which, as we have all come to recognize at our cost, has now proved a disaster. - Grahame Thompson, Economy & Society
