Unholy Trinity: The Imf, World Bank, and the Wto

  • Unholy Trinity: The Imf, World Bank, and the Wto
Le Pitch
Présentation de l'éditeur This work shows how the world's leading financial institutions - the IMF, World Bank and WTO - have been hijacked by the economic ideology of neoliberalism and the interest behind it, particularly from the 1980s onwards and in relation to their global financial, developmental and trade management roles. Instead of their original clearly defined, circumscribed and even benign responsibilities, they have now become the financial policemen of a global economy characterized by mounting extremes of rich and poor, recurrent instability, and failure over a half century to solve the problems of the developing countries. The story of the mounting opposition to these institutions is told. And the book concludes with a trenchant review of the various ideas now being canvassed not simply for their radical reform, but for alternative principles that might guide a very different form of globalization. Revue de presse 'Seattle, Genoa and Prague have etched the centrality of the IMF, the IBRD and the WTO into our consciousness . 'Unholy Trinity' charts the contours and the reach of these global regulatory institutions and how they serve as a fortress for the prevailing neoliberal theory of globalization.' --Michael Watts, Director, Institute of International Studies, University of California 'This is a great book.' --David Harvey, City University of New York Biographie de l'auteur Richard Peet is professor of geography at Clark University, USA. His previous books include Global Capitalism: Theories of Societal Development (Routledge 1991), and Modern Geographical Thought (Blackwell 1998). His assistant authors on this book are Beate Born, Mia Davis, Matthew Feinstein, Kendra Fehrer, Steve Feldman, Sahar Rahman Khan, Mazen Labban, Ciro Marcano, Kristin McArdle, Lisa Meierotto, Marion C. Schmidt, Daniel Niles, Thomas Ponniah, Guido Schwarz, Josephine Shagwert, Michael Staton and Samuel Stratton. Afficher moinsAfficher plus
