What Is Political Economy?: A Study of Social Theory and Underdevelopment - Martin Staniland - Hardcover

This book is an exploration of theories of 'political economy.' Such theories are the latest products of a long-standing intellectual enterprise concerned with understanding the relationship of politics and economics. Those involved in the enterprise have often wanted not just to describe how economics and politics are related but also to suggest how they should be related-to suggest how one should shape the other. In framing their theories, they have also involved themselves in academic arguments about the value and limitations of disciplines, as well as in essentially political arguments about the relationship of theory to action.Staniland, Martin is the author of 'What Is Political Economy?: A Study of Social Theory and Underdevelopment - Martin Staniland - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780300032956 and ISBN 0300032951.
