Sovereign Debt Diplomacies Rethinking sovereign debt from colonial empires to hegemony

Sovereign Debt Diplomacies Rethinking sovereign debt from colonial empires to hegemony - Oxford Oxford University Press 2021 - 1 electronic resource (384 p.)
Open Access
This volume offers two important contributions to the literature on sovereign debt. First, it provides a unique genealogy of debt collection practices in terms of their availability, acceptability and efficacy. We argue that creditors’ tactics and methods to enforce debt repayment emerged and solidified to a large extent in relation to the threads of colonial history, from the building of empires to the decolonisation era. Second, this volume reflects critically on the relevance of neo-colonial interpretations in recent cases of sovereign debt disputes
