Abstract
This themed section takes as its starting point the premise that the body matters in
International Political Economy (IPE) and presents four original articles which support
and illustrate this ontologically critical and, perhaps, provocative position. Although
feminist scholarship has undoubtedly gained a place at the table in IPE, it is curious that
one of the most important concerns, and contributions, of feminist IPE – that global
capitalism is marked upon, and forged through, bodies – has not emerged as a major
preoccupation for the discipline more broadly. In what follows we present what we
believe is a strong corrective to that inattention and, in so doing we hope to begin to set
out an exploratory agenda for the body to be both foundational and fundamental to
contemporary IPE.
