520    "The IMF and the World Bank have integrated a large number
       of countries into the world economy by requiring 
       governments to open up to global trade, investment, and 
       capital. They have not done this out of pure economic 
       zeal. Politics and their own rules and habits explain much
       of why they have presented globalization as a solution to 
       challenges they have faced in the world economy."-from the
       IntroductionThe greatest success of the International 
       Monetary Fund and the World Bank has been as globalizers. 
       But at whose cost? Would borrowing countries be better off
       without the IMF and World Bank? This book takes readers 
       inside these institutions and the governments they work 
       with. Ngaire Woods brilliantly decodes what they do and 
       why they do it, using original research, extensive 
       interviews carried out across many countries and 
       institutions, and scholarship from the fields of economics,
       law, and politics.The Globalizers focuses on both the 
       political context of IMF and World Bank actions and their 
       impact on the countries in which they intervene. After 
       describing the important debates between U.S. planners and
       the Allies in the 1944 foundation at Bretton Woods, she 
       analyzes understandings of their missions over the last 
       quarter century. She traces the impact of the Bank and the
       Fund in the recent economic history of Mexico, of post-
       Soviet Russia, and in the independent states of Africa. 
       Woods concludes by proposing a range of reforms that would
       make the World Bank and the IMF more effective, equitable,
       and just.
