Globalization and Its Discontents

I'm just going to mark this as read. It was a good book. But after 150 pages or so I feel I've got the message and it's just being repeated in other words.

short summary:
IMF and World Bank are both monetary institutions but both have a different mission. IMF often does not take advice to heart and the World Bank is more prone to have a participatory role.

Truth to be told, if you paid enough attention to the local newspaper during 2003-2006 fat chance you'll find this book offers you a fresh insight, as nearly all the people here who are against the Fund has written much of the Fund failure elsewhere (notably, Argentina); not to mention their description and interpretation for the photograph featuring President Soeharto signing something with IMF Director behind him.

Nonetheless, I'm still expecting more description for the events related with IMF elsewhere, something new...
