Developed in the classroom by two of the most prominent researchers in the field, Feenstra and Taylor’s International Economics is a modern textbook for a modern audience. Most international economics textbooks emphasize theory and the economies of advanced countries. Feenstra and Taylor’s text anchors theoretical coverage to empirical evidence throughout, while reflecting the realities of the global economy by covering emerging markets and developing countries (India, China, Southeast Asia). The new edition has been thoroughly updated, including the latest on the Eurozone crisis.
Robert C. Feenstra (Robert Christopher Feenstra) is Professor of Economics at the University of California, Davis. A former editor of the Journal of International Economics, and currently an associate editor of that journal and the American Economic Review, he has edited eight books and published numerous articles on international trade. He also directs the International Trade and Investment research program at the National Bureau of Economic Research.
