The Elgar Companion to the G7

This comprehensive Companion reviews the diverse challenges and successes faced by the G7 members over the last 50 years, and assesses the uncertain future of the organisation. Using a diverse range of methodologies, analytical work, and personal perspectives, it discusses how the G7 has been an important actor in terms of policy coordination, responding to global crises and attempting to mitigate problems in developing countries.

Emphasising that the G7 has continually been in a state of structural transformation, expert contributors explore the group’s history before exploring the political economy of its policy formulation. They cover a wide range of topics including macroeconomic dialogue, sanctions, exchange rates, trade, debt relief, energy, climate change, agriculture, gender equality, and health. Chapters also engage with the group’s external relations, focusing on interactions with Africa, China, and Russia. The Companion looks ahead to the future of the G7, dealing in particular with current and emerging issues in geoeconomics and geopolitical relations.

The Elgar Companion to the G7 is an invaluable resource for scholars of political science, economics, international relations, and law. Policymakers, journalists, think tanks, and businesses working on international economic issues will also benefit from the book’s theoretical and practical insights.
