Celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2021, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is widely recognized as one of the preeminent governing bodies on a global scale. However, despite its significant impact on international affairs, it remains one of the least explored and comprehended major global institutions. This extensively revised and updated second edition aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of this crucial, often overlooked, institution. A series of meticulously written chapters delve into the origins and evolution of the OECD, explore its profound influence, examine its current agenda, and assess its future prospects. Contrary to the simplistic portrayals of the OECD as a "rich-countrys club" or "think tank," this book proposes a more accurate perspective that recognizes it as the international organization it truly is.

• Outlines the OECD's historical roots and evolution, ensuring its narrative is fully up-to-date
• Examines the distinctive 'OECD way of working,' including the peer review process
• Evaluates competing perspectives on the OECD's influence over global governance
• Discusses the OECD reform and its implications for the organization's future trajectory
This concise introduction remains an essential resource for students of international relations, politics, and world history and affairs. It offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the OECD's role in shaping the global landscape, enabling readers to gain a deeper appreciation of this influential institution's significance.
