Recenzii

"World Trade Politics is a masterful work of historical analysis that makes a signal contribution to the field of International Political Economy. Combining meticulous empirical research with an unusually comprehensive reading of the formal literature, Deese develops an integrated theory of political leadership in international negotiations that is at once eclectic and nuanced. His tracing of the evolution of the GATT/WTO regime has applicability far beyond the issue of trade relations alone." - Benjamin Jerry Cohen, Louis G. Lancaster Professor of International Political Economy, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
"A comprehensive, insightful analysis of success and failure in GATT/WTO international trade negotiations over the past sixty years. In particular, Deese gives credible (and long overdue) emphasis to the decisive role played by effective political leadership." - I.M. Destler, Visiting Fellow, Peterson Institute for International Economics, USA
"David Deese asks the important question how the GATT expanded from its modest 1947 beginnings to become one of the most powerful international institutions in our world today. He constructs original answers using the concept of leadership by US and other officials in negotiations through the decades. A valuable contribution that details leadership failures as well as successes and considers the prospects for developing countries." - John Odell is Director, Political Economy and Public Policy Program, University of Southern California, USA
"The rise of China, India, and Brazil present important questions about leadership in the global economy . In this engaging and important new book, Professor David Deese uses case studies to investigate trade negotiations and thus, to ask and answer important questions about leadership and power. Policymakers would do well to read this book as they seek to understand and juggle the demands of their constituents with their responsibilities to the global community at large. Scholars will benefit from a greater understanding of how the U.S. and the EU provided intellectual and practical leadership of trade negotiations." - Susan Ariel Aaronson, Research Associate Professor, George Washington University, USA
