Abstract: | The comparison is made in four dimensions: l. How legitimate is the debt in the perception of the creditor and the debtor countries? 2. What is the size of the debt? 3. What resistance developed in the debtor country in the face of macroeconomic measures necessary for making the payments? 4. What incentives could create negotiations over rescheduling old and arranging for new loans toward mutually beneficial solutions? |
