International debt is a major concern both for the countries involved and for the economies financing it. What are the consequences for those involved and how can they tackle this problem? This 4-volume set presents 88 articles and provides a comprehensive, up-to-date analysis of the global issue of international debt. The origins and development of the debt crisis are followed by regional studies concerning Latin America, Africa and the Pacific. The involvement of banks and financial institutions is then explored, with competing explanations for the crisis. There follows an extensive analysis of more than 30 articles on dealing with debt. The final volume looks at the legacies and lessons of the debt crisis and includes a section on the recent problems in Asia.
