Dengan kekuatan modal yang besar, pengaruh International Financial Institutions (IFIs) dalam setiap proyek pembangunan di banyak negara berkembang tidak dapat dianggap remeh. Meskipun dianggap memiliki modal dan pengaruh yang besar, beberapa IFIs seperti World Bank Group kerap dituding sebagai pihak yang bertanggung jawab atas dampak lingkungan yang muncul karena proyek yang didanainya. Fakta bahwa beberapa IFIs besar seperti World Bank Group berkantor pusat di Amerika Serikat menjadi alasan artikel ini untuk mengeksplorasi isu pertanggungjawaban lingkungan IFIs dari kasus hukum di Amerika Ser

In a past column I reported on the controversy surrounding the construction of the Pangue Hydroelectric Project by the Chilean power company ENDESA, an undertaking funded by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private-sector lending arm of the World Bank Group (see Practicing Anthropology 19(4): 35-36, Fall 1997). That column focussed on the experience of anthropologist Theodore Downing, who was retained by the IFC to evaluate the Pehuen Foundation, an organization established to channel a portion of revenues from the Pangue Project for the long-term benefit of the indigenous Pehu

Abstract:
This article examines the World Bank's recent World Development Report on youth and development (2007) as an empirical example to explore the links between the employment of ‘group identity’ and the use of policy frameworks. Drawing on feminist theory to analyse the representations of young people put forward within the report, this article demonstrates how the report privileges economic indicators, elevates formal institutions, and obfuscates structural inequality and power. The article argues that the report's failure to indicate the partiality of its perspective on youth and development pro

Bernard Lovell is remembered for the iconic radio telescope at Jodrell Bank that bears his name, and for the research group at the University of Manchester that has become the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics. His enthusiasm and warm personality inspired several generations of radio astronomers, many of whom now lead their own research groups. Lovell also played a key role in the development of airborne radar during World War II.
