The World Bank Legal Review: International Financial Institutions and Global Legal Governance

Much of the content in this third volume of The World Bank Legal Review came from contributing speakers at the November 2010 World Bank-coordinated Law, Justice and Development Week. Topics in this collection of 15 papers primarily focus on international financial institutions (IFIs) as international organizations and development agencies and examination of international regulatory governance. Subject headings include issues confronting international IFIs, legal obligations and institutions of developing countries and reshaping the approach of IFIs, and international finance and the challenges of regulatory governance. Editors are Cisse (deputy general counsel, knowledge and research, World Bank), Bradlow (international development law and African Economics, U. of Pretoria, South Africa, and law, Washington College of Law), and Kingsbury (law, New York U. School of Law). Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
