Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy The Political Economy of Emerging Markets: Varieties of BRICS in the Age of Global Crises and Austerity, (Hardcover)

A key question this volume seeks to answer is whether the BRICS and so-called "emerging market" phenomena is really the new miracle it is presented as, offering new or modified varieties of reloaded capitalist development to the world, or yet another mirage. Written by 10 leading global experts, this book answers the tough questions over BRICS and emerging markets potentially realizing new varieties of reloaded capitalism. It is not only international and interdisciplinary but uniquely multiperspectival. Theories framing chapters are not of one genre, but generate theoretical debate at the frontier of knowledge in political economy along with nuanced empirical analysis which flows from it.
