Abstract
The Social Democratic/Green government which was in office in Germany from 1998 to 2005 announced that it would practise development policy as ‘global structural policy’: as policy aiming to transform global economic structures in favour of poor countries. The article proceeds by analysing the attempts to do so in three areas: the reform of structural adjustment programmes and debt relief, the reform of the international financial architecture, and the ‘Development Round’ in world trade negotiations. The article also analyses the accompanying discourse in order to identify the factors limiting this form of normative global governance.
