關於產品

Product Information

The World Bank is a controversial organisation. It is widely viewed with suspicion, as the international economic arm of the US, in thrall to the President who is responsible for appointing the head of the Bank. Eric Toussaint gives a highly readable account of just why the World Bank has become so powerful. In short, clear chapters he shows how the bank operates, who funds it, and what it sets out to promote. The Bank's main purpose is to grant loans to all the newly independent states of the developing world, to help them on their journey to recovery after colonial occupation. In reality, the conditions imposed on these states -- including enforced privatisation of all public services, and enforced neo-liberal rules on trade -- mean that the Bank has become the new colonial authority in everything but name. This is a perfect book for anyone looking for a critical introduction to the history of the Bank and its role in world affairs.

Reviews
Eric Toussaint has once again provided absolutely critical information. Anyone concerned with how excessive Northern wealth flows from sustained Southern poverty needs this analysis., 'Eric Toussaint has once again provided absolutely critical information. Anyone concerned with how excessive Northern wealth flows from sustained Southern poverty needs this analysis', Eric Toussaint studies the evolution of the debt of Southern countries with painstaking precision and patience. Thanks to his efforts and those of the young men and women assisting him, the CADTM has established itself as an authentic counter-power to the Bretton Woods institutions and the Paris Club., Toussaint's book is an indictment of the World Bank and he is clear that any financial institutions that take its place 'must be subservient to a social movement totally opposed to capitalism and neoliberalism'.
