About the Author

Kenneth M. Stokes

Dr. Kenneth Michael Stokes studied Economics as well as Social and Political Thought at York University. He is an Associate Professor of Political Economy of the Graduate School of International Relations at the International University of Japan, and a Senior Research Fellow of the International Network for Advanced Political Economy. His earlier books include the award winning Man and the Biosphere, Paradigm Lost, and Critique of Economic Reason. Forthcoming books address issues of the political economy of globalization (Past as Prologue), and socioethics (Socioethics and Practical Reason). Professor Stokes has taught graduate courses on: advanced and selected issues in international political economy, research methodology, global culture, institutional economics, and organization theory. In keeping with his program in international political economy, Professor Stokes sustains a strong interdisciplinariness in his analysis. While, he has examined complexity/systems theory, socio-cybernetics, and post-modern philosophy, he has also explored aspects of ecological thought and sought to bring these interests to bear upon an appreciation of the world system. Among the organizations with which Professor Stokes is affiliated are: the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy, the American Association for Institutional Economics, the International Society for Economic Methodology, and the International Society for Systems Science.
