The World Bank in a post-pandemic age
This paper explores how the radical expansion of the World Bank’s loan portfolio since the COVID-19 pandemic impacted its policy vision. Building on a thematic analysis of International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and International Development Association (IDA) commitments in 2020–2024 and drawing insights from the Bank’s research output and ongoing bureaucratic restructuring, it finds that this resurgence in lending has not br…
Towards a New Political Economy of Turkish Capitalism
Political economists investigating Turkey's turbulent path in recent years predominantly work from within three different characterizations of Turkish capitalism: authoritarian neoliberalism, crony capitalism, and state capitalism. This article critically reviews these competing visions and identifies directions for future research. I argue that, fundamental differences aside, these approaches together illustrate the indispensability of a politic…
Whither the post-Washington Consensus? International financial institutions and development policy before and after the crisis
This article explores the direction, drivers and implications of change in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank’s policy vision for developing countries before and after the global economic crisis. By examining the evolution of the Fund’s structural conditionalities and the thematic distribution of Bank commitments, it provides evidence for a significant change on the ground: a partial retreat from the post-Washington Consensu…
The World Bank and transferring development
As the premier institution of international development and a key player in global economic governance, the World Bank has been an analytical staple of fields as wide-ranging as geography and sociology, anthropology and development studies, and public policy and international political economy. Yet this collective scholarly endeavour overwhelmingly centres on the organization's role as a development lender. Adrian Robert Bazbauers's monograph is …
Defending supremacy
It is widely acknowledged today that the rise of new powers in the global economy has failed to produce commensurate adjustments in the architecture of global economic governance. How, then, do established multilaterals navigate the challenges arising from growing multipolarity? The article tackles this question by examining recent IMF and World Bank practice. It argues that, resistant though the Bretton Woods twins are to comprehensive reform, t…
The World Bank and Emerging Powers
The discrepancy between the increasingly multipolar world economy of the recent decades and the stubbornly limited representativeness of the organisations mandated with its governance causes much strain in global politics. Some scholars suggest that this chronic mismatch will undermine existing multilateral bodies, while others expect the present architecture to persist. This article contends that the outcomes of this challenge are institution-sp…
Rethinking Development Space in Emerging Countries
Despite an increasingly flexible global policy context, most emerging countries refuse to venture beyond their pre-existing development strategies. This article contends that in some cases domestic political constraints under liberalized markets might preclude policy dynamism. In particular, it draws attention to the tension between market expansion and social cohesion as a formative influence over policy patterns. This tension is sometimes addre…
The IMF, the World Bank, and the Global Economic Crisis
A thematic examination of the IMF and the World Bank's recent crisis programmes finds strong evidence of prescriptive continuity with the pre-crisis repertoire of these organizations, contradicting their legacy of policy adaptation during times of systemic turbulence. How are we to account for this anomaly? The current specialist literature on the Fund and Bank offers plausible explanations, mainly by stressing principal-agent relations and intra…
Global Crisis, National Responses
With its dilatory and piecemeal fiscal activism and uncharacteristic aversion to IMF assistance, the Turkish government's response to the global economic crisis of 2008–9 diverged considerably from prevalent trends in other major emerging market countries. Underlying this intriguing pattern were Turkey's pre-existing policy and macroeconomic constraints, cognitive lapses on the part of policymakers, and the conjunctural dynamics of domestic polit…
The Global Economic Crisis and the Future of Neoliberal Globalization
This article outlines the main elements of rupture and continuity in the global political economy since the global economic crisis of 2008-2009. While the current calamity poses a more systemic challenge to neoliberal globalization than genetically similar turbulences in the semi-periphery during the 1990s, we find that evidence for its transformative significance remains mixed. Efforts to reform the distressed capitalist models in the North enco…
