Islamization and Radicalization
The proliferation of conflict in the Middle East and the involvement of the US and of other global players in it is at the forefront of the political debate in this time and age. While the sources of Islamization and radicalization are complex and have received a great deal of attention both in the scholarly debate and in policy making circles, this article sought to trace them back to the role played by civil society and social capital. This art…
The Migration Question
This authoritative book proposes a fresh perspective on international migration, offering decisive answers to the big questions, and dismantling the main myths surrounding one of the most salient issues of today’s global politics. Who are these migrants? Do they steal our jobs? Can we help them in their home countries? Do border controls improve security? Are open borders desirable? Leila Simona Talani and Matilde Rosina address these issues and …
Right Move? Populist Radical Right Parties and Europe
While before winning power populist radical right (PRR) parties are often overtly against the European Union (EU) and its policies, once in government their position can change significantly. Their threats to leave the EU are frequently replaced by requests for greater EU involvement, particularly in economic and migration issues. This Special Issue unpacks PRR parties’ discourse and policies in relation to Europe, before and after gaining power.…

The Labour Market for Immigrants
This article verifies how regular migrants are inserted into the labour markets of receiving countries. The analysis will be made with reference to the position of neo-classical economists relating to the insertion of immigrants in the labour markets of host countries. Reference will also be made to existing data on the dynamics of the integration of authorized migrants in the labour force of OECD and EU countries
Can Europe survive its flaws, crises, and problems
The International Political Economy of Migration in the Globalization Era
The Response to Covid-19 by the Italian Populist Government
The COVID-19 crisis caused unprecedented disruption in terms of human losses, economic damages, social isolation, and general malaise. It seems that, although the advice of the scientific communities to adopt rigorous measures of track and tracing, mass testing, and lock down was often considered at odds with economic performance, eventually it was precisely that kind of advice that avoided the economic debacle. This article will try and find out…
The 2014/2015 Refugee Crisis in the EU and the Mediterranean Route
The refugee crisis of 2014/15 produced a huge stress on the already controversial EU common approach to migration and asylum from third countries. This article shows that securitization of the European border has increased after the refugee crisis of 2014/15 especially on the Eastern and Central Mediterranean routes. To this aim, it will first analyse the dynamics of regular and irregular migration to the EU by third country nationals in general.…
The Dark Side of Globalisation
German Ordoliberalism and the Future of the EU
Far from enabling France to enhance its power over European monetary policy, the Euro has served to consolidate the Federal Republic of Germany's primacy in Europe. We argue that German policies that have underwritten this primacy are determined not primarily by the ordoliberal ideas of German state managers, but rather because these ideas correspond to the requirements of Germany's neo-mercantilist export model and the interests of its most powe…
Women in the Mediterranean
While in the EU’s Mediterranean countries inequality is mostly linked to the social \nsphere, and in particular refers to labour market dynamics, in the Middle East and Northern \nAfrica (MENA) area the situation is more complicated as the social and private spheres \noverlap and cultural and religious factors have a great impact on women’s autonomy and \nopportunities beyond the family perimeter. The different challenges women are facing on \nth…
The ECB and the Quest for Competitiveness of the Eurozone
That the lack of competitiveness of EU member states in the wake of the globalization era was a problem from the start of EMU is clear from the various interventions on this issue by the European institutions. These started from the White Paper on Growth, Competitiveness and Employment, of 1993, up to the various versions of the Lisbon agenda and agenda 2020. It might even be possible to hypothesize, in line with Colin Crouch and the literature o…
Women, Globalization and Civil Society in the Mena Area
This article analyses the condition of women in the MENA area in the light of the challenges faced by those countries within the context of globalization. It argues that, if the position of the MENA countries in the global political economy is increasingly marginalized, this is even truer for women, who are left behind in the process of up-skilling necessary to catch up with the increasing technological demands imposed by globalization. Moreover,…
The Palgrave Handbook of Critical International Political Economy
Challenging the assumptions of 'mainstream' International Political Economy (IPE), this Handbook demonstrates the considerable value of critical theory to the discipline through a series of cutting-edge studies. The field of IPE has always had an inbuilt vocation within Historical Materialism, with an explicit ambition to make sense, from a critical standpoint, of the capitalist mode of production as a world system of sometimes paradoxically and …

Stopping the Run on the Piigs! EMU Structural Imbalances, the Sovereign Debt Crisis and the Response of the EU
The global financial crisis was an unprecedented blow to the global economy whose consequences still need to be fully appreciated. The last phase to date in the unfolding of the crisis was the outburst of a sovereign debt crisis in the euro area, first in Greece, in May 2010, then in Ireland at the end of November 2010 and finally to all the members of the so-called PIIGS group (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain). In this paper, the run …
Handbook of the International Political Economy of Migration
The political economy of migration from the Mena area before and after the Arab Spring
From Egypt to Europe
How does the process of globalisation relate to the increase of migratory flows from less developed countries to western ones? This book explores the impact of globalisation upon migration from an international political economy perspective, paying particular attention to the dynamics of migration from the Middle East and North Africa area, especially Egypt, to the EU member countries. The theoretical aims of the book are to understand the proble…
The European Central Bank
Avoiding the "G" Word in International Governance
Common Goods: Reinventing European and International Governance addresses both theoretical and practical concerns. It cuts across many conceptual realms. It is, therefore, difficult to set within the context of a single academic literature. From a practical standpoint, Common Goods contains a number of policy-oriented chapters that make useful contributions to the field of European policies and policymaking and to the literature on the role of pr…
