Global Political Economy or Woman of Valor

Global Political Economy

Author: Theodore H Cohn

Praised for its authoritative coverage of theory and history, Global Political Economy places the study of IPE in the broadest global context. Written by one of the field’s leading scholars, this text helps students understand the fundamental importance of international political economy and make sense of current events in the global economy. Its three areas of focus–globalization, North-North relations, and North-South relations–encourage students to connect theory and history with practice, explore domestic and international economic interactions, and examine the critical relationship between economic and security issues.

Woman of Valor: Margaret Sanger and the Birth Control Movement in America

Author: Ellen Chesler

Ellen Chesler's 1992 biography of Margaret Sanger is acclaimed as definitive and is widely used and cited by scholars and activists alike in the fields of women's health and reproductive rights.

Chesler's substantive new Afterword considers how Sanger's life and work hold up in light of subsequent developments, such as U.S. Supreme Court cases challenging the constitutional doctrine of privacy and international definitions of reproductive health as an essential human right.
