Sinossi
A new definitive history of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), covering its founding in the aftermath of the Second World War to its present day and future prospects. The UNDP is the largest UN programme and at the centre of the network of institutions that carry out the global work of development. Active in more than 160 countries, the UNDP sponsors the global, regional, national, and local Human Development Reports that have transformed development economics and the practice of most development agencies, including the World Bank. Based on research that included access to the UN's entire global network and interviews with more than 400 members of staff, this new book also reveals unknown stories about the 'development of the development enterprise', examines the contribution made by key figures and addresses UNDP controversies including, racism, neo-colonialism, sexism and concerns that complacency, inefficiency, and immorality that have crept into the UN system. This lively scholarly book will be of general interest to those concerned with contemporary global history and questions of development, democracy, and peace. It will be of particular interest to students of development and of international affairs.
