Power and Politics After Financial Crisises: Rethinking Foreign Opportunism in Emerging Markets (International Political Economy) [Hardcover]

Justin Robertson (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 22, 2008 | Series: International Political Economy

Foreign exploitation of economic crises in the developing world has been a central claim of neoliberal critics over the past decade. This important and recurring international economic theme is the subject of closer scrutiny in this new collection, where contributors offer competing interpretations of the interaction between international and domestic forces after crises. In revisiting the aftermath of recent crises in key emerging markets, the collection uncovers the extent to which foreign firms, governments and institutions liberalized and penetrated these economies.
