Delegation and Agency in International Organizations.
Hawkins, Darren G.

Delegation and Agency in International Organizations.[electronic resource]. - Leiden :Cambridge University Press,2006. - 426 p.

Contents; Figures; Tables; Notes on contributors; Preface; 1 Delegation under anarchy: states, international organizations, and principal-agent theory; 2 Who delegates? Alternative models of principals in development aid; 3 US domestic politics and International Monetary Fund policy; 4 Why multilateralism? Foreign aid and domestic principal-agent problems; 5 Distribution, information, and delegation to international organizations: the case of IMF conditionality; 6 Delegation and discretion in the European Union; 7 How agents matter

Why do governments increasingly delegate sovereign authority to international organizations and what are the consequences of such choices? This volume employs a broad range of empirical techniques to answer these questions and argues that the issues involved in controlling international bureaucracies are very similar to those faced in domestic politics.
