Globalization, Institutions and Governance
Coauthored with James A. Caporaso SAGE, 2011 "Globalization is not all good, of course, but neither is it entirely bad. What we need - and what Caporaso and Madeira provide - is a more nuanced way of thinking about the nexus between global markets and international politics. Written with real flair and loaded with up-to-the-minute examples, it is just the sort of discipline-spanning text our students have been waiting for." --Lloyd Gruber, the London School of Economics and Political Science Summary: Exploring the complex interplay between economic, political, and cultural forces at the global level, Globalization, Institutions and Governance moves from a discussion of the key theoretical approaches to globalization, to analyzing the role of domestic institutions, and on to the wider implications of globalization for theories of global governance and the role of international institutions. The book culminates with a discussion of winners and losers in globalization, outlining the available political choices for governments attempting to maximize the gains from globalization while minimizing its costs.
