Carr has a prominent place in the scholarly history of International Relations (IR), it is notably absent from the discipline of International Political Economy (IPE).&nbsp; This is puzzling, because Carr\u2019s analysis of international politics places a strong emphasis on the organic connection between politics and economics on an international scale.&nbsp; On this reading, his principal publications on IR can also be seen to chart a sophisticated conceptualization of what I want to label <em>historical<\/em> IPE.&nbsp; This article builds on Carr\u2019s articulation of this tradition to explore the consequences for financial governance at the global level arising out of the 2007\/2008 financial crisis. &nbsp;Using insights generated by his analysis of the transformations experienced during the middle decades of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, most importantly concerning the role and purpose of national political institution and the effects of changes in the inter-state balance of power on economic governance, I argue that the principal consequence of the crisis for financial governance is a retrenchment of the locus of governance authority to the institutions of the nation-state.&nbsp; Today, the \u2018global\u2019 element of financial governance, despite the level of activity often associated with it, is receding in significance. &nbsp;Returning to the work of E.H. Carr helps us to understand why this is happening, and suggests that an approach to IPE rooted in the historical mode of analysis which he advanced has much to offer the field.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Global and International Studies Program would like to announce our fourth Works-in-Progress speaker, Dr. Randall Germain, whose paper &#8220;E.H.
