He also recalls earlier proposals for creating permanent debt restructuring machinery and the reasons why they were not adopted. Recognizing that the issue of sovereign debt workout is complex, Rieffel has provided a comprehensive and detailed exposition of this important policy issue." AB - "Rieffel's book is an important tool for policymakers and the public, particularly as the global community-seeks to resolve the debt problems of countries as diverse as Argentina, Iraq, and Cote d'Ivoire."--Jacket.
