The European Union, the World Bank and the Policymaking of Aid

Based on the experience of the author, an IPE scholar and former trade policy consultant at the World Bank (WB), the book offers an in-depth exploration of the EUWB relations, conceptualized as hybrid delegation.

Coupling cross-time analyses of their interaction in the regions of the Middle East and North Africa, Europe and Central Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa with an original investigation on the coordination among the EU member states at the Executive Board of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development over the voice and participation reform of 20082010, the book advances an innovative theoretical framework to assess the EUWB joint institutional and field policy performances. Augmented PA models of delegation, role theory and performance analyses are engaged, and selectively recombined, to investigate the nature, evolution and impact of the interactions of the two organizations, both in their everyday and constituent politics. Hybrid delegation-in-motion is reconstructed, against the background of post-Washington Consensus and post-Lisbon EU, to unveil the changing division of labour between the two largest development multilaterals of the new global context.

The book will be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners in European Politics, Development, International Relations, International Political Economy and Global Economic Governance.

Eugenia Baroncelli is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Bologna, Department of Political and Social Sciences, where she teaches IPE, IR and Global Development courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Between 2001 and 2006 she has worked at the World Bank as a consultant on trade, tariff and IPR policies for the Research Department Trade Group, as well as for the MENA, SASIA and Africa regions. In her research she has focused on the international political economy of trade, democracy and security, as well as on the political economy of development. Among other things, she has investigated the peace dividend from SAFTA trade preferences between India and Pakistan, the role of neo-Gramscian IPE applied to development studies, and Susan Stranges contribution to IPE studies. Her work on the World Bank and on the EUWorld Bank relations includes journal articles and chapters in edited books.

Guide

The research conducted for this book has benefitted from support and insight from a variety of actors, both individuals and institutions. I however bear full responsibility for the ideas that are advanced in the chapters below. Any errors or inconsistencies are mine.

I am indebted to Knud-Erik Jorgensen who has provided me with invaluable insight in the concept phases of the research, and for sharing his ideas on EUs roles and performance in International Organizations. I also wish to thank Sonia Lucarelli, for her insight on the relevance of others perceptions on the making of the EUs own identity. Emilia Galiano has patiently read the first draft of this effort, and Gabriele Liotta has provided research support for the drafting of : I am grateful to both for their valuable support. Finally, my heartfelt gratitude goes to the many World Bank EDs, VPs, economists and specialists, to the EU officers from the Commission (DG DEVCO-EuropeAid, EEAS) and the EU Parliament, who have given me their time and ideas, to help me in this inquiry about EUWorld Bank relations.

Support to the empirical portion of this research has come from the ECRP-ESF 20092013 Eurocores Program, in the context of a Project on the Performance of the EU in International Organization, and from the Italian Ministry of University and Research, in the context of a Project on the External Image of the EU-Survey II.

Inter-organizational relations and the making of multilateral development

The European Union (EU) and the IBRD (International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, hereinafter World Bank) are currently the two major multilateral actors in development policy. In addition to being a key player in the world trade system and the largest provider of foreign direct investment (FDI), In recent years, both organizations have made tangible progress to increase transparency on their relations. Yet, surprisingly little is known about why EUs aid allocation through the World Bank (channeling) takes place, and to what effect, for citizens in donor and lending states.

The EU and the World Bank have navigated multiple challenges since their inception: the EEC-EC-EU enlargement rounds and deepening phases, the World Banks adjustments to the post-colonial developments since the 1950s, the postdebt crisis challenges in the early 1980s, to name a few. Between the 1990s and the 2000s, the EU and the World Bank have faced the tests posed by the double transitions in post-Communist regimes, and by the redefinition of the Washington Consensus, respectively. Across the turn of the millennium they have jointly engaged in the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), a task that has become particularly challenging after the global crisis in 2008, and the ensuing Great recession. Reaffirmed with the EU Agenda for change (2011) and the support to the launch of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, both organizations have focused on coupling the poverty eradication goal to that of reducing inequality (the World Banks twin goals of ending extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity) through sustainable and inclusive practices across a range of new challenges.
