Pressestimmen

Review of the hardback: 'A carefully crafted and researched anthology that will be a 'must read' for anyone interested in international institutions and their policies in the post-Washington consensus period. It should also be read with profit by those interested in the role of ideas in policy making, as it goes well beyond the dominant 'diffusion' or 'internalization' approaches, and thus opens up a new research agenda.' Friedrich Kratochwil, European University Institute Review of the hardback: 'This very strong volume makes a clear and distinct theoretical contribution in exploring how the World Bank and International Monetary Fund adopt and spread norms. The individual chapters are based on an impressive amount of interview and archive material, written by authors with deep expertise in the field. The book marks a major contribution to the study of international organizations and international relations theory more generally.' Jason Sharman, Griffith University Review of the hardback: 'In this book Park and Vetterlein have assembled the next generation of academic leaders in international relations and political economy. They take the study of international organisation to a higher plane of insight by analysing the internally generated ideas and norms of the IMF and World Bank that drive global policy.' Diane Stone, University of Warwick, Central European University and University of Western Australia
