Description
Summary:"Adopting new and much more comprehensive concepts of both power and politics, The Retreat of the State develops a theoretical framework to show who really governs the world economy.

The book is a signpost, pointing to some promising new directions for the future development of research and teaching in international political economy."--Jacket
