Today, students flitter from topic to topic learning a bit about everything but without any depth. If a kettle of water is taken on an off the fire, it will never come to a boil.

Course: Introduction to Political Economy {Oatley}:
Course Outline:
Broadly viewing the global economy as a political competition that produces winners and losers, International Political Economy holistically and accessibly introduces the field of IPE to readers with limited background in political theory, history, and economics. This book surveys major interests and institutions and examines how state and non-state actors pursue wealth and power. Emphasizing fundamental economic concepts as well as the interplay between domestic and international politics, International Political Economy not only explains how the global economy works; it also encourages readers to think critically about how economic policy is made in the context of globalization.
