As pillars of the post-1945 international economic system the
Regional and Sub-Regional Development Banks (RSDBs) have long been
considered mini-World Banks, reiterating the policy approach of the
largest official multilateral development lender in the world. The
main objective of the collection is to identify what role the RSDBs
play in global economic governance and why. This edited collection
draws together cutting edge original research on these understudied
institutions. In the burgeoning sub-field of global economic
governance as well as the broader study of international
organisations (IOs), too often the focus remains on the World Bank
and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Second-order IOs, such
as the RSDBs, receive much less attention despite their longevity
and regional importance. This volume corrects this oversight by
bringing together methodologically diverse research on the RSDBs
that interrogates the role and impact of these organisations in
global economic governance. The book investigates: the African
Development Bank (AfDB); the Asian Development Bank (AsDB); the
Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the European Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and select sub-regional
development banks in comparison to the World Bank Group. It will be
of great interest to students and scholars of IPE, IR and
Development Studies.
