- The International Monetary Fund: Part of the Problem or Part of the Solution?
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank are two supranational institutions with mandates to help resolve economic crises and to foster economic development. From their creation in 1945 with a membership of 45 countries, these institutions have grown to over 180 member countries; but they have the same clients, provide a similar service - conditional loans, and are subject to similar criticisms regarding adherence to what has been labeled as the Washington consensus. The objectives of this paper are to (i) review relevant research regarding the debate of whether the Bretton Woods institutions are part of the problem or part of the solution; (ii) evaluate the debate employing a political economy perspective; and (iii) assess recent reforms at both institutions as the worl...

- Losing Control: Why Imf Article Viii(2) (B) May Nullify the Enforceability of Financing Contracts When Spiraling Oil Prices Prompt the Use of Exchange Controls
As the price of oil continues its climb, a potential catastrophe looms on the horizon. While the countless effects of surging oil prices have been discussed at length, one possibility has received far less attention -- the revival of International Monetary Fund (IMF) Article VIII(2)(b) as a defense to financing contracts. If the recent surge in oil price accelerates, countries may be forced to adopt new monetary policies to protect their own faltering currencies. Article VIII(2)(b) completely bars the enforcement of an illegal exchange contract in any IMF member state. This note attempts to show how this diminutive IMF article, if not treated with its deserved respect, has the potential to destroy financing contracts, especially in these times of global economic uncertainty. An IMF amen...
