The African Development Bank
E. Philip English and Harris M. Mule

This volume in the Multilateral Development Banks series looks at the work of the African Development Bank.
ISBN 1853392960, (ITP), 1996, 224pp, £17.50,

The Asian Development Bank
Nihal Kappagoda

Regional development banks have recently come under growing criticism from grassroots organizations, environmental groups and others. Asia and the Pacific is an extremely diverse region, containing both very small and very large nation states - as well as extremes of rich and poor. This volume describes the important and delicate role of the Asian Development Bank in this region during a dramatic period of economic transformation.
ISBN 1853392979, (ITP), 1995, 198pp, £17.50,

The Caribbean Development Bank
Chandra Hardy

The Caribbean Development Bank has, over the last twenty-five years, focused its efforts on development of the Commonwealth Caribbean countries, and in particular, the seven small island states that form the Organization of East Caribbean States. It is small in comparison with the two development banks above it: the Inter-American Development Bank and the World Bank, but some of the advantages of smallness, as well as the proximity to and continuity of relations with the partner countries are demonstrated in this study.
ISBN 1853392987, (ITP), 1995, 152pp, £17.50,

The Inter-American Development Bank
Diana Tussie

The multilateral banks are powerful forces in the international community, providing loans of more than $250 billion to developing countries over the last half-century. The best known of these, the World Bank, has been studied extensively, but the 'regional development banks' are little understood even within their own geographic regions. This volume describes the difficulties faced by the Inter-American Development Bank since the 1960s and its role and new objectives in the 1990s.
ISBN 1853392995, (ITP), 1995, 184pp, £17.50,

Titans or Behemoths? The multilateral development banks
Roy Culpeper

This concluding book in the Multilateral Development Bank series draws on the insights presented in the other volumes to summarize the present and future of multilateral development banks as a genre of development agencies. Culpeper goes beyond the scope of the previous volumes in two ways. First, he provides extensive discussion of the World Bank Group - the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the International Development Association, and the International Finance Corporation. Secondly, he discusses the evolution of development theory and development-promotion which sets the context for the growth of multilateral development bank activity over the last half-century. For those with an interest in the role of the multilateral development banks, this book provides an excellent overview of the group.
ISBN 1853393002, (ITP), 1997, 216pp, £17.50,
