The Birth of Development highlights efforts to diffuse the destructive role of the nation-state in world affairs by constructing truly international organizations with global agendas--the World Bank, the Food and Agriculture Organization, and the World Health Organization. These organizations pioneered the advancement of the quality of life for all and established an ongoing obligation to promote worldwide economic development. Breaking new ground conceptually and methodologically, The Birth of Development is a welcome addition to the literature in the fields of modern diplomatic history and international relations.
