Events such as the global financial crisis have helped reveal that the drivers and contours of governance on a national and international level remain a mystery in many respects. This is so despite the ever-increasing complexity and sophistication in the management and understanding of economic, legal and political spheres of global society. Set in this context, this timely Research Handbook is the first to explicitly address the constitutive relationship between law and political economy.With scholarly contributions from diverse disciplinary and geographic backgrounds, this authoritative book provides an expansive overview of the legal architecture of the global political economy. It covers, in three parts, topics surrounding money and markets, the relations of organization, and commodities, land and resources.Scholars and policymakers as well as undergraduate and postgraduate law students interested in the intersection of socio-political, economic, and legal dynamics of governance will find this book a thought-provoking and insightful resource.Contributors: A.

Review

'Law creates and regulates our political and economic life. If the legal institutions of citizenship and political authority, property and contract, money and credit, or labor and capital were put together differently, our world might be more equal, productive, democratic, sustainable and just. This terrific collection explores how this might be done. Each essay puts law at the center of a story about political economy and asks how things might be otherwise. Original, broad-reaching and imaginative, these essays will change how you think about the world: what seemed natural and inevitable will seem open to rethinking and remaking. An excellent overview of law's role in contemporary political economy by some of the most creative thinkers in the legal academy today.' -- David Kennedy, Harvard Law School, US
