In this book, Dr Stephen Gill makes an original contribution to a subject that has become of central concern to specialists and students of international relations and international political economy - the extent and nature of America as a hegemonic state. He challenges arguments concerning the relative decline of American hegemony and develops a novel concept of transnational capital - the rise in the power of internationally mobile capital. Within this theoretical framework, the author examines the nature and importance of private international relations councils, most notably the Trilateral Commission.
