These negotiations resulted in the creation of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank-the key international financial institutions of the postwar global economic order. Critics of Bretton Woods have argued that its architects devoted little attention to international development issues or the concerns of poorer countries. On the basis of extensive historical research and access to new archival sources, Helleiner challenges these assumptions, providing a major reinterpretation that will interest all those concerned with the politics and history of the global economy, North-South relations, and international development.The Bretton Woods architects-who included many officials and analysts from poorer regions of the world-discussed innovative proposals that anticipated more contemporary debates about how to reconcile the existing liberal global economic order with the development aspirations of emerging powers such as India, China, and Brazil. Alongside the much-studied Anglo-American relationship was an overlooked but pioneering North-South dialogue. Helleiner's unconventional history brings to light not only these forgotten foundations of the Bretton Woods system but also their subsequent neglect after World War II. 606 $aInternational finance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aEconomic development$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInternational finance$xHistory 615 0$aEconomic development$xHistory 676 $a338.9109/045 700 $aHelleiner$b Eric$f1963-$0721088 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465175403321 996 $aForgotten foundations of Bretton Woods$92463010 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06858nam 22011413u 450 001 9910796569703321 005 20231110220223.0 010 $a1-118-92055-4 035 $a(CKB)3860000000012444 035 $a(EBL)1779316 035 $a(OCoLC)890146503 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001333834 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12603710 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001333834 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11392192 035 $a(PQKB)11339036 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1779316 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7104232 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7104232 035 $a(EXLCZ)993860000000012444 100 $a20161017d2014|||| u|| | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aStarting out in Statistics$b[electronic resource] $eAn Introduction for Students of Human Health, Disease, and Psychology 210 $aSomerset $cWiley$d2014 215 $a1 online resource (312 p.) 225 1 $aNew York Academy of Sciences 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-118-38402-4 327 $aStarting Out in Statistics; Contents; Introduction - What's the Point of Statistics?; Reference; Basic Maths for Stats Revision; Statistical Software Packages; About the Companion Website; 1 Introducing Variables, Populations and Samples - 'Variability is the Law of Life'; 1.1 Aims; 1.2 Biological data vary; 1.3 Variables; 1.4 Types of qualitative variables; 1.4.1 Nominal variables; 1.4.2 Multiple response variables; 1.4.3 Preference variables; 1.5 Types of quantitative variables; 1.5.1 Discrete variables; 1.5.2 Continuous variables; 1.5.3 Ordinal variables - a moot point 327 $a1.6 Samples and populations1.7 Summary; Reference; 2 Study Design and Sampling - 'Design is Everything.

Although the software is useful, it does not arm a student with the skills necessary to formulate the experimental design and analysis of a research project in later years of study or indeed, if working in research.
