Born in Australia in 1974, Len Seabrooke moved to Denmark to join the International Center for Business and Politics in August 2005. Len Seabrooke holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) from the University of Adelaide (1996), a Masters of Arts (Research) from Flinders University (1999), and a PhD in Political Science from the University of Sydney (2003). He was awarded the Danish “Ung Eliteforsker” in 2006.
His research interests are in political economy, economic sociology, international relations, and institutional theory. While Len Seabrooke has investigated a range of topics, he has concentrated on analysing the social sources of international financial orders, primarily by comparing political conflicts between elite and non-elite groups over the allocation of credit, tax burdens, and access to property within advanced industrialised states.
Len Seabrooke is co-editor of the international peer-reviewed journal Review of International Political Economy and co-editor of the Routledge/RIPE Series in Global Political Economy. His book publications comprise US Power in International Finance (Palgrave, 2001), The Social Sources of Financial Power (Cornell UP, 2006), Global Standards of Market Civilization (co-edited with Brett Bowden, Routledge/RIPE, 2006), and Everyday Politics of the World Economy (co-edited with John M. Hobson, Cambridge UP, 2007).
