International Debt and Globalization

Alexandre J. Vautravers

Chapter 9 in International Debt, 2013, pp 226-237 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Globalization can take many forms and has been defined in various ways. While some maintain that the phenomenon is unique and recent, others see an evolution reaching as far back as the sixteenth century.1 Many still argue over its negative and positive aspects, in a form of “agony versus ecstasy” dialectic.2 Our purpose, rather than judging the effects of the phenomenon, will be to investigate the ties between globalization—or interdependence— and its most severely criticized companion: debt.
