Beschreibung
The dominant policy response to economic crises over the past four decades has been the introduction of austerity--a mix of budget cuts and reforms to downsize the role of the state. In A Thousand Cuts, Alexandros Kentikelenis and Thomas Stubbs examine the activities of the world's leading advocate of austerity: the International Monetary Fund. As one of the first systematic assessments of the impact of austerity on people's lives around the world, A Thousand Cuts makes an important contribution to the continuing debate on how to foster social protection in light of economic crises and IMF-mandated policy reforms.
