Internationalization and Domestic Politics (Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics)

Rating:
Summary: A insightful work of emerging agenda: Internationalization
Review: Robert O. Keohane and Helen V. Milner, editors of "Internationalization and Domestic Politics", written in 1996, are one of the most intelligent International Relations scholars today. This book focuses on the enormous effect of internationalization on domestic politics; changes of national economic policies, institutional and political changes within a nation, and changes of the attitude of socio-economic interest group toward national economic policy. Then they apply their theoretical hypothesis to the United States, Japan, Russia, China, and a few developing countries. Besides validity of their hypothesis, this book proposes a great insight into the global phenomenon, internationalization, and shows how each country¡¯s national economic policies converge on global level. "A candid analysis of internationalization" - that is enough for my impression.
