Summary

"Deeper than Debt brings together a wide range of arguments and views to examine the effects of economic globalisation on the lives of the poor majority in debtor countries, and how debt can illuminate the process of the ever-deepening inequality between rich and poor." "Deeper than Debt will provide invaluable analysis for debt activists who have campaigned successfully with Jubilee 2000 and for those wanting a deeper look at the development and economic issues raised by debt."--Jacket.
