PEREIRA, João Márcio Mendes. As ideias do poder e o poder das ideias: o Banco Mundial como ator político-intelectual. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.56, pp.77-100. ISSN 1413-2478.

This article discusses how the World Bank explores the synergy between loans and economic thinking to increase its influence and institutionalize its policy agenda internationally. We start from the hypothesis that the Bank has acted, since its origins, even if in different ways, as a political, intellectual and financial actor due to its singular condition of lender, policy formulator and articulator, and propagandist of ideas - produced by the anglo-saxon mainstream and disseminated or produced by the bank, in sync with this same economic mainstream - of what to do in terms of capitalist development, how to do it and to whom.

Palavras-chave : World Bank; Economic Thinking; Scientific Research; Loans; Political Influence.
