Description

Explore the history of one of the most powerful supranational institutions in the world. World Bank and Urban Development: From Projects to Policy provides a deep analysis of the Bank's role in international development since 1946. This text serves as the first book-length history and analysis of urban programs managed by the World Bank and their connection to urban policy formulation within the developing world. Based on extensive primary research, this volume examines how the World Bank moved to embrace urban programs starting in the 1970s. It looks at the political and economic forces that drove this change and how the Bank translated its general development ideology into specific urban strategies. This book is a vital resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in how global institutions influence urban planning and development policy on a global scale.
