Description:In Restructuring Hegemony in the Global Political Economy, some of the most stimulating writers currently working in political economics trace the development of neo-liberalism in individual countries as well as on a global scale. They argue that this process began the defeat of the New International Economic Order, the Euro-Communist ascendancy in Western Europe and the overthrow of the Allende government in Chile, culminating in the collapse of practical socialism. The essays discuss the social forces involved in this process, their international linkages and their responses in a global context.
