Drawing on the Latin American political economy, this book brings to the fore empirical questions on different patterns of involvement of IFIs in pursuing politically-sensitive reforms, the capacity of local actors to influence outcomes, the context in which they interact, the type of policy ideas conveyed, and the policy process that are advanced.

'Amongst the current global economic drama, Riggirozzi's careful study of the power relations between IFIs and a single country is more important than ever.' - Oxonian Review
