Seminar Description
The term "International Political Economy" means very different things to different people and to attempt to give the discipline perspective and relevance this seminar will be developed through two separate, but interactive, sections: (A) theory and (B) practice.
(A) - The theoretical section, which will focus on the role of theory building in IPE, is subdivided into two approaches: First, as a specific sub-discipline of International Relations (as it is understood mainly in the United States and, by and large, in Germany), and secondly, as an endeavour to bridge the – academic – divide between politics and economics (as sometimes favoured in Britain, Canada and the Netherlands, among other places).
(B) - This section will apply a version of the 'British/Canadian' approach to IPE to analyse the background to globalisation and its current context.
Both these sections will be run concurrently in an attempt to demonstrate how theory and analysis can work together.
Further information on each section
(A) The theoretical section seeks to put into perspective the somewhat uneasy relationship between 'mainstream theories of IR' – e.g. (Neo-)Realism, (Neo-) Institutionalism and some variants of Constructivist IR - and so-called 'Critical' approaches to International Political Economy (IPE). How do critiques of British, Canadian and Dutch approaches to IPE (Robert Cox, Stephen Gill, Susan Strange) towards mainstream IPE/IR relate to prominent inter-mainstream critiques of IPE and IR theories (Robert Keohane, Mearsheimer/Walt, Steve Smith)? Is there a fundamental difference between certain strands of International (or Global) Political Economy approaches, e.g. between dominant North-American vs. British approaches? How does the most recent debate in IR on the pros and cons of an emphasis on method relate to the analyses of IPE in general and Globalisation in particular?
(B) Whereas the theoretical section of the seminar aims at giving a perspective on the theories and debates within the discipline of IPE and its relation to more mainstream approaches, the second section (B) seeks to use IPE (British/Canadian) in practice to explain the background, contexts and prospects for globalization. Globalisation is a much contested topic and invites many definitions and explanations; a diversity which has its roots in the separate and sometimes conflicting theoretical approaches of single disciplines. Economics, International Relations, History, Politics, Sociology, Business Studies etc have their distinct approaches to globalisation which singularly, and combined, make valuable contributions to the study of this process, but overall leave the impression that globalisation is beyond interpretation and is only open to a variety of observations. Within these disciplines there are separate perspectives, which again add to this diversity. International Political Economy (IPE) is another academic approach which seeks to explain globalisation. While IPE does not claim any interpretive superiority, its interdisciplinary analysis of a complex phenomenon like globalisation offers insights which other disciplines may not be equipped to provide.
The IPE perspective adopted in this series of lectures seeks to understand globalisation as a ‘totality’; an ‘epochal shift’ within capitalism which transforms virtually everything we do and experience. From this view it has a historical background and in economic terms is principally associated with the deregulation of international finance, a technological revolution, especially in
2 microelectronics, and the transnationalisation of production processes. Such developments are complemented and facilitated by ideological and political changes that have taken place during the last two decades of the twentieth- century; most notably the rise of neo-liberalism and the collapse of Soviet style communism.
Section B of the seminar will begin with a brief historical perspective on the development of various epochs in capitalism, of which globalization is the latest. This will be followed by an analysis of the pre-globalisation era of ‘embedded liberalism’ that prevailed under the ‘Bretton Woods’ post-war consensus. This order was based on Keynesian style socio economic management that encouraged a mixed economy, state planning, national controls over finance, full–employment, a welfare state and social democracy. It is the breakdown of this system, because of challenges from internal and external forces that allowed for the rise of globalization. After giving an interpretation of the rise of globalization, its most fundamental component parts and its impact on political and economic processes will be studied. This will include analyses of the functions of global finance, global production, transnational corporations and the impact of globalization on the state and democracy. Subsequently a study will be made of some of the contradictions and problems of globalization such as: poverty and inequality; developing countries and asymmetric development; cultural hegemony; the 2008 financial crisis and its aftermath. Finally, an opportunity will be given in the last session to select, examine and discuss briefly some of the contemporary issues of globalization from an IPE perspective using as a framework the changing environment and practice of US foreign policy.
Relevance to Further Academic Study and Employment
For those wishing to pursue further academic study Critical Theory and IPE provide not only additional analytical tools, but also different perspectives which may contribute to explanatory potential and an analytical dimension that can enhance existing debates.
Regarding employment, although the world has becomes more globally integrated leading to a standardization of processes and procedures – accounting standards, trading rules, financial procedures, contestation remains over many issues. While employers today still value the ability of their employees to apply ‘best practice’ there is an increasing demand for the background knowledge that gives the option to choose ‘strategic practice’. As one employer in the financial sector stated in his presentation to a group of students, ‘In today’s financial environment it is essential to see beyond the headlines, mainstream views and theoretical norms’. Critical theory and IPE are valuable in the financial sector in this respect but also have equal relevance in many
3 other professions: diplomacy; politics; senior administration; high level business decision making etc.
