Geography of Power: Making Global Economic Policy
ISBN: 9781842777114 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This work looks at how contemporary global economic policies are made: by which institutions, under what ideologies, and how they are enforced. The author reveals the central roles played by organizations such as the IMF and the World Bank in supervising the livelihoods of over 2.5 billion people. He shows that neoliberal economic policy is enforced by a few thousand unelected and unaccountable experts in the North and has failed to deliver tolerable living conditions for the poor. The book argues for a new geographic theory of power, exercised through dominant institutions, concentrated in...

Unholy Trinity: The Imf, World Bank and Wto
ISBN: 9781848132511 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 297 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Who really runs the global economy? Who benefits most from it?
The answer is a triad of 'governance institutions' - The IMF, the World Bank and the WTO. Globalization massively increased the power of these institutions and they drastically affected the livelihoods of peoples across the world. Yet they operate undemocratically and aggressively promote a particular kind of neoliberal capitalism. Under the 'Washington Consensus' they proposed, poverty was to be ended by increasing inequality. This new edition of Unholy Trinity, completely updated and revised, argues that neoliberal...
