New Studies in U.S. Foreign Relations Series
Mary Ann Heiss, Editor

This series focuses on works that expand the parameters of U.S. foreign relations. Chronologically broad and topically diverse, it is designed to further the internationalization—indeed, globalization—of the field by publishing a wide variety of innovative books, including interdisciplinary studies, that place the United States within a larger, transnational context. Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, identity formation and projection, borderlands studies, comparative history, and cultural transfer.

The Birth of Development

How the World Bank, Food and Agriculture Organization, and World Health Organization Changed the World, 1945–1965

by Amy L. S. Staples

This important new study uses the World Bank, the Food and Agriculture Organization, and the World Health Organization as vehicles for exploring post-WWII thinking on international development, and its consequences. It highlights postwar efforts to ameliorate the destructive role of the nation-state in world affairs by constructing truly international organizations with truly global agendas.
