Reviews

'At a moment when political economists of global finance are largely preoccupied with, and frustrated by, the post-crisis regulatory response, Chris Clarke looks to Adam Smith to bring ethical relations and everyday politics to the centre of critical inquiry.' - Paul Langley, Durham University, UK 'Clarke's original and important analysis shows how Adam Smith can help transcend the narrow economistic foundations of not just contemporary financial governance but also much IPE scholarship that overlooks the issues of ethics and moral philosophy that informed classical political economy.' - Eric Helleiner, Department of Political Science, University of Waterloo
