Angela O'Mahony's research focuses on international political economy and how increasing international economic ties interact with domestic interests and institutions to shape economic decision-making. While many scholars believe that international economic integration has resulted in an environment in which countries can no longer assert control over their domestic ties with the international system, her research argues that international economic integration may alter the tools available to governments preserving their ability to control the domestic economy.
