The World Bank’s goal is to end poverty. The Bank is independent and provides loans to countries solely based on need and merit of the project. But that’s theory say political scientist. In reality some powerful multinational corporations are pulling the strings. Quadcast host Sandra Knispel talks with Randy Stone, a University of Rochester professor of political science, about his findings of undue corporate influence at the World Bank.
