About this title

Synopsis

This book argues that the World Bank, far from being a unitary actor, is fundamentally plural, internally fragmented and dispersed, with cascading chains of delegation, authority and controls, and with considerable discretion delegated to the staff.

Store Description

After selling new and second hand books in a brick and mortar establishment for 34 years I have now gone exclusively online. My specialty areas are the Caribbean and books by and about people of the African Diaspora. I also stock antique prints and rare and hard to find books in other subject areas. My aim is always to please the customer, connecting them to elusive, hard-to-find titles is always a source of great satisfaction. In short, I love doing what I do.
