The Impact of International Financial Institutions in Pakistan: Development, Governance and the Rule of Law (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781350295339)

Naveed Ahmed examines the impact of structural reform strategies of International Financial Institutions
(IFIs) on the rule of law, good governance and development in Pakistan.

The World Bank, the IMF and other international financial institutions have a mixed track record of success in Pakistan. This book seeks to understand why this is. The book explores how these institutions have been hindered in achieving social justice as a result of being caught between weak local governance structures and the competing interests of other powers, including Europe and the USA. Ahmed goes on to demonstrate how the ethos and instruments of rule of law and good governance can help counter the internal factors that have aggravated conditions of poverty and social injustice in Pakistan.
