Abstract
The International Monetary Fund and the World Bank have been exposed to criticism for quite some time now for having betrayed their basic goals. Thus, it is claimed that they should be dissolved because they have turned out to be a mechanism for bringing developing countries under discipline instead of rendering them assistance. The United States, on the other hand, strongly object to such proposals, suggesting furthermore their reanimation and thorough fulfilment of the tasks, as identified and defined at their foundation.
