Abstract: Abstract In order to locate our studies of ‘maldevelopment’ and ‘divergent development’ within the field of political economy we need to describe the shape this field has taken in recent years. We will first define political economy and its two main subfields, international and comparative political economy. Then we will make a further distinction within comparative political economy between the ‘new’ and other approaches. We will then identify the theme of ‘development’ within the new comparative political economy to which our studies belong.
