About this ebook

Debt Crisis explores the complex interplay of economics and politics that leads nations into sovereign debt crises. These crises aren't isolated incidents, but rather systemic problems rooted in economic imbalances and political factors. The book examines why countries decide to default on their obligations, often influenced by domestic and international political pressures. A key insight reveals the recurring nature of these crises throughout history, from Latin America in the 1980s to more recent European struggles, highlighting persistent vulnerabilities in the global financial system.

The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, integrating economics, political science, and international finance to provide a comprehensive understanding of sovereign debt. It analyzes how macroeconomic imbalances and unsustainable fiscal policies can trigger a debt crisis, ultimately threatening economic ruin. Through case studies and data from organizations like the IMF, the book demonstrates the impact of austerity measures and debt relief initiatives.

Structured in three parts, the book first establishes a theoretical framework, then examines historical cases, and finally evaluates crisis management strategies. It offers valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and anyone seeking to understand global financial stability and the political economy of national defaults.
