Also referred to as global political economy, international political economy (IPE) is an interdisciplinary academic field which analyzes the connection between international relations and political economy. IPE studies how international actors such as states, institutions and individuals influence the shaping and functions of economic structures of the world, and vice versa. Scholars are concerned with issues such as international trade, development, global markets and the structural balance of power between states and institutions.
