Life After Debt - Christianity and Global Justice

Life After Debt - Christianity and Global Justice

by Prof Michael Northcott (Author)

Synopsis

In the last 30 years the world has become a much more unequal place. Third world governments are massively in debt to Northern banks, and are labouring under new economic and trade regimes, forced on them as conditions for debt-rescheduling. As the movement for the cancellation of Third World debt gains popularity, Northcott offers a specifically Christian understanding of abundance and Justice. He points towards the reforms which are needed to give the poor greater control over their lives. His book focuses on the need to 'democratise' economic practices, and to develop alternatives such as local trading initiatives which put people first and money second.
