Good on debt issues, uneven otherwise
This book goes into detail on the problems of globalization, debt relief for developing countries, the international flow of capital, the World Bank, and the IMF. The book makes a very good case for debt relief for poor countries. As Toussaint points out, in most cases the borrowed money went straight into the pockets of dictators and corrupt officials, and was never invested in the country at all. It therefore seems nothing short of ridiculous to expect repayment from the present governments and peoples of these countries, who never saw any of the money. Do we really expect developing countries to shut down their school systems and courts to be able to make payments on these debts?

Poor explanation, redundancy and bad editing make this book a pain to read.
Poor explanation, redundancy, bad editing make this book a pain to read. The authors really don'tknow how to write a book. Each paragraph is extremely long that it is hard to identify what the main idea of each paragraph is. ... Read more
