The term political economy was first used in France in 1615.
This comes from Jerry Muller, a professor of intellectual history, but Wikipedia backs him up.
Also worth a read is their article on IPE. Interestingly, under the "Origins" section there is no mention of either Susan Strange or Robert Gilpin, yet there is mention of someone named Eugene Low. Anyone heard of him?
