Peter Carroll and Aynsley Kellow provide a comprehensive account and analysis of the origins, development and, most intriguingly, the recent reforms that characterise the OECD. They argue that this increasingly complex organisation has fulfilled its design to be an adaptive, learning organisation and explore how the OECD has spread its wings beyond its European and North American roots to become an increasingly influential body in global governance. Topical chapters include the OECD’s work on health and the environment, relations with international, intergovernmental organisations, the OECD’s structure and also the key processes.PPN: PPN: 1023441993Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-EWE
