In the light of the 1997-98 Asian Crises that revealed to the general public more about the modus operandi and "raison d'être" of the Bretton Woods IFIs, this paper reviews the criticisms coming from the Left and the Right against them. Both sides suggest closing or limiting the IFIs' role but for opposite motives. The paper assesses the respective merits of these critiques to determine whether the IFIs can be seen as a prelude of a new, democratic global international order or, conversely, as merely the instruments of the "old" conservative world
