This is a report of a qualitative, historical case study in international education from a policy process perspective. The research explored the characteristics of policy formation and implementation which led to the creation, maintenance and expansion of the IB Diploma Programme and the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) from the early 1960s until 1978. This was not a prescriptive study of what was intended; it was a descriptive analysis of what happened.
