ISBN: 9780198810445 出版年：2019 页码：641 Oxford University Press

Bantekas and Lumina gather experts to conclude that imposing structural adjustment programmes exacerbates debt, injures the entrenched rights of peoples and their state's economic sovereignty, and worsens the borrower's economic situation.
