About this product
Product Information
The dramatic inside story of the most important case in the history of sovereign debt law Unlike individuals or corporations that become insolvent, nations do not have access to bankruptcy protection from their creditors. When a country defaults on its debt, the international financial system is ill equipped to manage the crisis. Decisions by key individuals?from national leaders to those at the International Monetary Fund, from holdout creditors to judges?determine the fate of an entire national economy. A prime example is Argentina's 2001 default on $100 billion in bonds, which stands out for its messy outcomes and outsized impact on sovereign debt markets, sovereign debt law, and IMF policy. Default is the riveting story of Argentina's sovereign debt drama, which reveals the obscure inner workings of sovereign debt restructuring. This detailed case study describes the intense fight over the role of the IMF in Argentina's 2005 debt restructuring and the ensuing bitter decade of litigation with holdout creditors, demonstrating that outcomes for sovereign debt are determined by a complex interplay between financial markets, governments, the IMF, the press, and the courts. This cautionary tale lays bare the institutional, political, and legal pressures that come into play when a country cannot repay its debts. It offers a deeper understanding of how global financial capitalism functions for those who work in or study debt markets, international finance, international relations, and international law.

Reviews
"The fight between Argentina and its bondholders is one of the most significant episodes in the history of sovereign debt litigation, and Greg Makoff has written the definitive treatment." ? W. Mark C. Weidemaier , Ralph M. Stockton Jr. Distinguished Professor, University of North Carolina School of Law at Chapel Hill " Default gives readers a rare view into the economic, legal, political, and social challenges of resolving a sovereign default. While focused on the holdout litigation against Argentina, Default also explains how the country's post-2001 difficulties were exacerbated by its highly politicized approach to debt and its creditors, as well as the lack of political consensus for addressing interrelated issues across the center and provinces." ? Anoop Singh , former director, Western Hemisphere Department, International Monetary Fund "While there is a substantial body of legal literature on Judge Thomas P. Griesa's 2012 decision to impose the pari passu injunction on Argentina, Gregory Makoff's Default is the first book that fully explains why he did it. Makoff achieves this by detailing all the events that, in a dramatic climax, led up to the decision, including Judge Griesa's building anger at Argentina. It's a surprising and fascinating story that should make it a fun read for legal scholars and general readers alike." ? Annmaria Viterbo , professor of international law, University of Turin, Italy "Makoff deftly traces the dynamics of the long-running struggle between the government of Argentina and its creditors. His meticulously researched narrative reveals political as well as legal struggles, involving the IMF and its member governments; retail investors in Germany, Italy, and Japan; holdout creditors in the United States; and Argentina's political elites. Default reminds us why creating better mechanisms for addressing sovereign debt crises is both so important and so difficult to achieve. This book will be of interest to anyone ? political scientists, economists, historians, and finance professionals, among others ? interested in gaining a deeper understanding of sovereign debt dynamics." ? Layna Mosley , professor of politics and international affairs, Princeton University "An extraordinary book ? it combines technical details and human interactions to produce a thrilling narrative of the legal proceedings of a sovereign debt default case that changed the way such cases are treated." ? Manuel Hinds , former finance minister of El Salvador and coauthor, with Benn Steil, of Money, Markets, and Sovereignty ,
