FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this book, Dr Stephen Gill makes an original contribution to a subject that has become of central concern to specialists and students of international relations and international political economy - the extent and nature of America as a hegemonic state. He challenges arguments concerning the relative decline of American hegemony and develops a novel concept of transnational capital - the rise in the power of internationally mobile capital. Within this theoretical framework, the author examines the nature and importance of private international relations councils, most notably the Trilateral Commission. Author Biography Stephen Gill was born in Bristol, England in 1971, a committed photographer since a teenager.

Widely regarded as a key young European artist, Gill has had one person shows at the Photographers Gallery, London, Museum of Architecture, Moscow, and the Arles Festival of Photography, France.

Review ... a thoughtful as well as provocative study of the global political economy which effectively challenges the assumptions of mainstream realist and liberal international relations scholars. Even those who disagree with its conclusions will learn from it. American Politics Review This book is much more than a study of the Trilateral Commission or another contribution to the debate on hegemonic decline. It is a demonstration of how to write about a global political economy that is as much a relationship of classes and a process of ideological formation as it is an inter-state system - an historical bloc in Gramscis sense of the term. This is a pioneering work in the study of global structural change that goes well beyond conventional international relations theory. Robert W.
