Staatsverschuldung

In this volume, Hanno Beck and Aloys Prinz explain the most important terms, facts and contexts that one needs to know about government debt in clear terms that readers with no previous economic training can understand. They present the key arguments for and against government debt and explain how the high debt levels in Germany and other countries came about and what impact this has on our economy. Finally, they show what options remain for policymakers to limit debt and overcome the current euro crisis.
