Research
Current research:
My current research focus is the political economy of international governance, and in particular international trade agreements. Our economic system and over 200 years of economic growth and development is built on a Ricardian concept of comparative advantage and trade but without the governance structures to ensure an appropriate trading environment, the global system risks not only failing some of its stakeholders, but ultimately it risks being usurped by a world of bilateral and regional trading blocs that favour selective protectionism. The increasing influence and power of the BRIC + countries only adds to the complexity of international governance and the multiple interests that will shape our collective future.
