Reviews

One constant frustration to anyone who follows the World Bank is the frequent difference between the institution's words and actions. In this book, Weaver offers a convincing explanation for this 'organized hypocrisy'... The book's initial chapters provide a good introduction to the idea of hypocrisy as an institutional response to conflicting demands. -- C. Kilby Choice
