Structure and Coverage
The entries fall into six major categories: concepts
and principles; models and theory; institutions and
agreements; policies and instruments; analysis and
tools; and sectors and special issues. Our selection
of topics in the last of these categories, sectors and
special issues, was based on policy relevance rather
than on theoretical considerations. We have not included
biographical entries, but individuals who
have played a significant role in the world economy
are mentioned in the relevant topical entries; their
names also appear in the index.
The Encyclopedia is informed by the modern
history of international economic relations since the
introduction of the gold standard in the late 19th
century. This is widely considered to be the beginning
of themodern era of economic relations and, as
such, offers a useful starting point. We have tried to
select topics that will continue to be important
essential concepts, perennial issues, and long-term
trends regardless of the particular future course of
the world economy.
