Debt Management For Development |

‘Kunibert Raffer, a distinguished academic, has never confined himself to an ivory tower. Instead he has consistently used his extensive knowledge of law, history, economics and politics to argue for an end to the structural injustice of relationships between rich creditor countries and poor debtor nations. I have always admired the man and his work, and believe the ideas outlined in this book are vital if justice is to be the basis of international financial relations.’
– Ann Pettifor, New Economics Foundation and Advocacy International
