Paul Hirst, Int. & Global Political Economy, Economics & Development. There are so many books on globalization that a new one should have something distinctive to say in order to justify its publication ... This edited volume more than justifies its existence and is of a consistently high standard. Paul Hirst, Int. & Global Political Economy, Economics & Development. helpful ... valuable ... careful assessment of the evidence and an extensive critical review of the literature ... can be read by non-experts and is written without jargon. Paul Hirst, Int. & Global Political Economy, Economics & Development. well written ... the book should be among the required reading lists for graduate students studying global change. Jnl of Global Social Policy. This edited volume ... is of a consistently high standard. It focuses on an issue that has been relatively neglected in the globalization literature: the close connection between economic internationalization and the growth of inequality within and between nations. Paul Hirst, The Royal Inst. of Int. Affairs, Vol.76, No.4, Oct 00. This book is helpful because it sees inequality as a continuing and structural problem and yet does not exhibit the hostility to growing international trade of many anti-globalization protesters ... It is also valuable in putting open-ended analysis before instant policy solutions. Paul Hirst, The Royal Inst. of Int. Affairs, Vol.76, No.4, Oct 00. The book can be read by non-experts and is written without jargon. Paul Hirst, The Royal Inst. of Int. Affairs, Vol.76, No. 4, Oct. 00.
