Testo aggiuntivo
Transforming International Institutions rewrites some of the established narratives around the research agenda on the resourcing of IOs (Goetz & Patz, 2017) and in particular on the role of trust funds and earmarking in IO financing...This literature, explicitly or implicitly, traces the trend that IOs have become dependent on earmarked voluntary funding back to dynamics in the 1990s and 2000s, while Graham reveals how the roots of these developments date back to the early decades of the United Nations.
