    Thinking the Twenty­-First Century: Ideas for the New Political Economy

    Combining science, philosophy, politics and economics, this book takes a provocative look at the changes required to build a new global political economy. This call to action advocates a balanced political economy with trandisciplinarity, accountability and transparency at its centre.

    David Murillo

Reading it is also essential to appropriately manage this world which, without doubt, is here to stay." - Javier Solana, EU's High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy, Secretary General of the Council of the European Union, 1999-2009

     

    Globalization is both a concept and a cliché used to explain an economic system and the state of the world. This ground-breaking book sets out the questions and identifies multidisciplinary relationships to understand and address many seemingly insoluble issues.
