Commentary on IMF leadership published by PAIS PhD researcher
PAIS PhD researcher Matthias Kranke has published a commentary for The Conversation on the question of leadership in the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde has recently announced to stand for re-election notwithstanding legal charges of negligence in a previous assignment as French finance minister. In the commentary, Matt argues that leadership questions get too much attention, often effectively crowding out more important issues. Public debate should centre on how the IMF is governed and what policies it promotes, rather than on who leads the organisation.
The piece can be found at:
Matt's doctoral research examines the politics of collaboration between the IMF and the World Bank. Further information on his research and publications is available at:
