Review of the hardback: 'A carefully crafted and researched anthology that will be a 'must read' for anyone interested in international institutions and their policies in the post-Washington consensus period. It should also be read with profit by those interested in the role of ideas in policy making, as it goes well beyond the dominant 'diffusion' or 'internalization' approaches, and thus opens up a new research agenda.'
