The World Bank Inspection Panel

In 1993, the World Bank created an Inspection Panel to investigate complaints about its own operations. This initiative--the first of its kind for an international organization--is the subject of this book. As general counsel of the World Bank and one of the main architects of the initiative, the author is in a unique position to analyze the implications of this step for the World Bank, for other international organizations, and for international law. This is the first book on such a topic, and as such it is likely to remain the most authoritative source of information on the subject for years to come.Shihata, Ibrahim F. I. is the author of 'The World Bank Inspection Panel' with ISBN 9780195209990 and ISBN 0195209990.
