Professor Karl Meessen of the University of Augsburg presented a paper at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of International Law in April 1986, in which he argued that the IMF’s adjustment programs did not produce long–term structural change and that the role of the IMF ought to be reduced. Indeed, in the panel discussion and the questions from the floor, there was remarkably little scholarly interest in preserving a critical role for the IMF.
