This undergraduate/graduate course compares the economic systems of regions on the spectrum from free market to communism. Since the fall of the Soviet Union and the movement toward capitalism in the remaining communist countries, this field of study has changed dramatically. This book concentrates on these movements and their implications and for the first time expands its scope to include more coverage of developing countries in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Thoroughly revised in response to the dramatic changes in the former-Soviet Union, this text has been reorganised along geographical lines rather than ideological ones and now covers more of the world's economic systems including Asia and Africa. Features: * Most up-to-date coverage of world economic systems now available. * Special emphasis on the issues facing the former-Soviet republics. * Unique coverage of Latin America and Africa. * Each chapter concludes with a list of current internet resources available on that topic. * Additional web support available at a site maintained by the author. New to this edition: * New geographical organization. * Complete revision of chapters on the formerly-planned economies. * New chapters on Asia and Africa.

Comparative Economic Systems III

This third edition of H. Stephen Gardner's classic text is the essential guide to the world's different economies and the institutions which underpin them. On the face of things, there would appear to be less variation between different national economies since the beginning of the twenty first century. With a few exceptions, market-based capitalism has become the dominant force and this has been reflected in increased international trade and the march of globalization. However, the differences between nations' economic systems are still marked an several new factors have come into play. These are fully explored in this book and include: <ul>
<li>financial crises in Asia and Latin America</li> <li>the rise of China and India as economic powers</li> <li>the introduction of the Euro and enlargement of the European Union</li> <li>elections in Latin AmericaAmerica, leading to a "left turn" in several countries</li> <li>the ongoing situation in the Middle East</li> </ul>
The book differs from other textbooks in international economics and business by taking a region-by-region approach. The book thus provides an up-to-the-minute guide to the major players in the world economy, couched in non-technical language that can be used by all students of economics, politics and international business.
