Abstract

If you subscribe to World Bank publications, the 2017 World Development Report will be landing on your doormat soon. This annual report is met with fanfare not only because it charts the work of the World Bank over the previous 12 months, but because it serves as a good indicator of the Bank’s current thinking. The forthcoming report offers an opportunity for the Bank to reassess its reliance on orthodox economics, and introduce policy frameworks that reflect the complexity of real life. How far will the Bank go? Personally, I won’t be holding my breath for a dramatic departure in policy, and here’s why.
