Abstract [en]

The IMF policy discourse has withstood a persistent critique which stretches before the fall of the Washington consensus in 2009 when it was declared dead by the G20 London forum. Much of this critique remains in contemporary literature and scholars argue that the IMF policy discourse is still driven by neoliberal ideas. By conducting a quantitative content analysis including word frequency and case occurence, this paper aims to find out to what extent the most recent IMF policy paper contains the contemporary neoliberal ideology defined in recent critical literature. By extracting keywords used to describe the contemporary IFI development policy discourse within the IMF, this paper aims to find out to what extent these are found within the IMF policy paper. Adding to this, examining the keywords in their contexts through a qualitative approach, this paper reveals that much of the contemporary critique is applicable to the contemporary discourse of the IMF. The findings in this paper reveals a high frequncy of the selected keywords, which are seemingly connected to the theoretical framework. The paper ultimately concludes that neoliberal ideas are still central to the IMF policy discourse.
