This book examines the concepts that have powerfully influenced development policy and, more broadly, looks at the role of ideas in international development institutions and how they have affected current development discourse. The authors analyze why some ideas are taken up by these institutions, how the ideas travel within the systems and how they are translated into policy, modified, distorted or resisted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Morten Boas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415312892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415312899\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.44h x 6.38w x 0.81d","brand":"Morten Boas","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136071315711,"sku":"9780415312899","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3ce5a003-5cb0-4e55-ada4-e103ca75fff8.jpg?v=1770160317","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/global-institutions-and-development-morten-boas-9780415312899","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
