摘要

本文考察了2002年改革期间世界银行和国际货币基金组织的政策理念对克罗地亚医疗融资政策的影响。它为全球社会政策文献提供了证据，证明国际组织的影响力主要源于控制政策议程的非强制性工具，例如传播思想、技术援助和与受援国政府的协商。尽管克罗地亚面临着经济和政治困难，削弱了其与国际组织的谈判地位，但该文件表明，国际援助所附带的胁迫和条件的影响是有限的。它解释了国际组织的宽容立场，它们的使命是援助和适应一个国家的需求，以及它们放贷、留在改革游戏中和延长未来影响力的自身利益。因此，国际组织愿意与受援国政府讨价还价。

The role of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund in the healthcare financing reforms in Croatia: Transfer of ideas and limited coercion

The paper investigates the influence of policy ideas from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on healthcare financing policy in Croatia during the 2002 reform. It contributes to the global social policy literature by providing evidence that the influence of international organisations primarily stems from non-coercive instruments to control the policy agenda, for example, dissemination of ideas, technical assistance and consultations with the recipient government. Even though Croatia was facing economic and political difficulties which weakened its bargaining position vis a vis IOs, the paper shows that impact of coercion and conditionalities attached to international aid was limited. It explains the lenient stance of international organisations by their mission to aid and adjust to a country’s needs as well as their self-interest to lend money, to stay in the reform game and to prolong their influence in the future. Consequently, international organisations are willing to bargain and make trade-offs with the recipient government.

期刊介绍： Global Social Policy is a fully peer-reviewed journal that advances the understanding of the impact of globalisation processes upon social policy and social development on the one hand, and the impact of social policy upon globalisation processes on the other hand. The journal analyses the contributions of a range of national and international actors, both governmental and non-governmental, to global social policy and social development discourse and practice. Global Social Policy publishes scholarly policy-oriented articles and reports that focus on aspects of social policy and social and human development as broadly defined in the context of globalisation be it in contemporary or historical contexts.
