Book excerpt: In 1993, the World Bank created an Inspection Panel to investigate complaints about its own operations. This initiative--the first of its kind for an international organization--is the subject of this book. As general counsel of the World Bank and one of the main architects of the initiative, the author is in a unique position to analyze the implications of this step for the World Bank, for other international organizations, and for international law. This is the first book on such a topic, and as such it is likely to remain the most authoritative source of information on the subject for years to come.
