Winners and Losers

D. Michael Shafer is Associate Professor of Political Science at Rutgers University. His previous books include Deadly Paradigms: The Failure of U.S. Counterinsurgency Policy and The Legacy: The Vietnam War in the American Imagination.

This is an important and much needed book. It presents a rigorous and convincing argument for bringing firms and sectors back into the center of the international political economy field, which allows us to get beyond the increasingly sterile states versus markets debates.(American Journal of Sociology)
