´The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is one of the least written about and least understood of our major global institutions. This new book builds a well-rounded understanding of this crucial, though often neglected, institution, with a range of clearly written chapters that outline its origins and evolution, bringing its story fully up-to-date, present a clear framework for understanding the OECD, set the institution within the broader context of global governance, outline key criticisms and debates, [and] evaluate its future prospects. Given the immense challenges facing humanity at the start of the 21st century, the need for the OECD as a venue where the world´s leading states can discuss, on an informal and ongoing basis, the conundrums of globalization has never been greater.´ -- Book cover.
