Zusatztext For all those who think that states pull all the strings when it comes to designing and controlling international organizations, Tana Johnsons excellent book will force you to think again. While most studies focus on states as principals and international bureaucrats as agents, Johnson demonstrates that many international bureaucrats have mastered the art of insulating themselves from state control. This is a terrific study. Give it a careful read, and you will have a much better grasp of international organizational politics.
