Reader reviews for Banking on Knowledge: The Genesis of the Global Development Network

From the publisher

Banking on Knowledge is one of the first studies of how the World Bank is reinventing itself as the 'Knowledge Bank'. The book addresses how international organizations and governments are developing partnerships with think tanks, research institutes and other knowledge institutions in the hope of informing and improving policies for reform and development around the world.

The book focuses on the recently established Global Development Network (GDN). The GDN is a new and ambitious initiative, sponsored by the World Bank, which is possibly the largest worldwide non-governmental enterprise aimed at producing knowledge as a public good on a global scale. Timely, original and provocative, this book is essential reading for students, researchers, policy makers and professionals with an interest in the future of the World Bank, the strategies of think tanks and the changing nature of development.

First line

In December 1999, the Global Development Network (GDN) - an association of research institutes and think tanks was launched by the World Bank in cooperation with the United Nations, the governments of Japan, Germany and Switzerland, a group of regional research networks, and a number of other international development institutions.
