Books by Jamie Peck

Offshore outsourcing - the movement of jobs to lower-wage countries - is one of the defining features of globalization. This book provides the first sustained investigation of the workings of the global sourcing industry, its business practices, its market dynamics, its technologies, and its politics.

This book examines the rise and diffusion of free-market thinking, from the early 20th Century through to the age of Obama. It tracks the ascendency of neoliberalism, its key players, and decisive moments of reconstruction, including the Chicago School of Economics, New York City's bankruptcy, Hurricane Katrina, and the Wall Street crisis of 2008.
