| dc.description | The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund dominate the economic policies of many of the world's poorest countries. Fifty years after they were created, what impact are these institutions having on ordinary people's lives? A Case for Reform argues that the time has now come for a fundamental review of their policies and a radical reform of their operations, and then presents specific recommendations for international action. | en_US |
