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.
