50 Years Is Enough: The Case against the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund

Author: Kevin Danaher

As the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) celebrate fifty years of economic dominion over the Third World, this reader brings the best progressive authors together to critique these two main proponents of global neoliberalism. 50 Years Is Enough covers such topics as failed development projects, the feminization of poverty, the destruction of the environment, the internal workings of the World Bank and the IMF, and the struggle to build alternatives to neoliberal policies. It also includes a guide to the many organizations involved in the struggle to reform the World Bank and the IMF.
