Political Economy Research
Researchers in political economy combine their insights and expertise from the fields of economics, political science, law, history, finance, and social and management sciences to study nonmarket decision making. They delve into the study of political institutions, collective action, international relations, political behavior, the role of government, the design of constitutions, and the complex interconnections between the market economy and nonmarket institutions, such as governments and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and how they are helping to inform progress in some of society's most critical policy areas.
