Lucy from Bretton woods project explains the motivation of these institutios, and this is followed by a discussion on what reconstruction means.

The structural adjustment policies are the policies that countries need to implement in order to obtain a loan from the international monetary fund. They usually consist in cuts on public spending, like public health and education, and more lately, the privatisation of their public industry, like the water service.

Lucy and Zoe, also from Bretton Woods Project, explain.

Like G8, IMF, WB, WTO
(Group of 8, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, World Trade Organisation)

Clips taken mainly from the talk on Internation Finalcial Institutions at the Institute for Autonomy, and from the presentation of a book.

The first .ogg file is an introduction to why the IMF and WB were created.
