Translated by Vicki Briault Manus. In collaboration with Raghu Krishnan and Gabrielle Roche.
Haymarket, Chicago, 2005.
Globalization brings growth? Think again. Debt-engineered by the IMF and Word Bank-sucks countries dry.
In the last decade, neoliberal policies have created debt and global impoverishment on a massive scale. In this updated edition of his internationally recognized book, Eric Toussaint traces the origins and development of the crisis in global finance.
This new edition is fully updated with new statistics to account for new developments in global financial institutions like the World Bank and IMF. Your Money or Your Life is widely considered one of the clearest and best-documented books on globalization available.
Includes an extensive bibliography and notes.
“Packed full of detail...This book is stimulating, concise, and well-written, with lots of examples and three country case studies. I highly recommend it.”
