The United Nations and the Bretton Woods Institutions

D. John Shaw

Chapter 21 in Sir Hans Singer, 2002, pp 211-225 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Singer retained his interest in, and affection for, the United Nations after his retirement from the UN. He has constantly championed its increasing importance as a world body for addressing global issues and problems, securing global development, and attending to the interests of the developing countries. At the same time, he has been a consistent and sharp critic of the Bretton Woods institutions, the IMF and the World Bank, and of their divide from the rest of the UN system (Singer, 1988e; 1989k; 1990h; Jolly and Seniger1995i).
