Abstract

Although poststructuralism has become an increasingly important theoretical perspective within International Studies, the engagement between international Political Economy (IPE) and poststructural theory has been sporadic and antagonistic. The contributors offer a sustained dialogue on the promises of poststructural politics within the study of IPE, and move significantly beyond existing debates. Offering a debate on the meaning of discourse, identity and representation for practices of political economy, the contributors discuss, amongst other issues, the social construction of value and desire, gender performativity and political economy, the political practices of financial identity, and the ambiguities of dissent in the global political economy. The volume thus interrogates and challenges the disciplinary boundaries of the discipline of IPE
