Trades of money for political influence persist at every level of
government. Not surprisingly, governments themselves trade money
for political support on the international stage. Strange, however,
is the tale of this book. For, in this study, legitimacy stands as
the central political commodity at stake. The book investigates the
ways governments trade money for favors at the United Nations
Security Council - the body endowed with the international legal
authority to legitimize the use of armed force to maintain or
restore peace. With a wealth of quantitative data, the book shows
that powerful countries, such as the United States, Japan, and
Germany, extend financial favors to the elected members of the
Security Council through direct foreign aid and through
international organizations, such as the International Monetary
Fund and the World Bank. In return, developing countries serving on
the Security Council must deliver their political support ... or
face the consequences.
