{"product_id":"the-soviet-union-and-the-oscar-sanchez-sibony-9781108995184","title":"The Soviet Union and the Construction of the Global Market","description":"Oscar Sanchez-Sibony reveals the origins of our current era in the dissolution of the institutions that governed the architecture of energy and finance during the Bretton Woods era. He shows how, in the second half of the 1960s, the Soviet Union sought to dismantle the compartmentalized nature of Bretton Woods in order to escape its material ostracism and pave a path to global finance and exchange that the United States had vetoed during the 1950s and 1960s. Through the construction of a set of pipelines that helped Europe's energy regime change from coal to oil and gas, the Soviet Union succeeded in developing market relations and a relationship with Western capital as durable as the pipelines themselves. He shows how a history of the development of capitalism needs to integrate the socialist world in bringing about the new form of capitalism that regiments our lives today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oscar Sanchez-Sibony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108995187\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108995184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/08\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.55d","brand":"Oscar Sanchez-Sibony","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46927807348991,"sku":"9781108995184","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_54ddfa0c-937b-4c53-b245-47600d1c783e.jpg?v=1749373031","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-soviet-union-and-the-oscar-sanchez-sibony-9781108995184","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
