Controlling Institutions
ISBN: 9781107005402 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How is the United States able to control the IMF with only 17% of the votes? How are the rules of the global economy made? This book shows how a combination of formal and informal rules explain how international organizations really work. Randall W. Stone argues that formal rules apply in ordinary times, while informal power allows leading states to exert control when the stakes are high. International organizations are therefore best understood as equilibrium outcomes that balance the power and interests of the leading state and the member countries. Presenting a new model of institutional...

Focusing on the former Soviet bloc, Stone finds that the IMF is neither as powerful as some...
