What has actually been achieved? Has debt relief provided truly additional resources to fight poverty? How will the design and timing of the "enhanced Heavily Indebted Poor Country (HIPC) initiative" affect the development prospects of the world's poorest countries and their people? The study then moves on to address several broader policy questions: Is debt relief a step toward more efficient and equitable government spending, building better institutions, and attracting productive private investment in the poorest countries? Who pays for debt relief? Is there a case for further relief? Most important, how can the case for debt relief be sustained in a broader effort to combat poverty in the poorest countries? 606 $aDebt relief$zDeveloping countries 606 $aDebts, External$zDeveloping countries 606 $aLoans, Foreign$zDeveloping countries 606 $aStructural adjustment (Economic policy)$zDeveloping countries 615 0$aDebt relief 615 0$aDebts, External 615 0$aLoans, Foreign 615 0$aStructural adjustment (Economic policy) 676 $a336.3/6 700 $aBirdsall$b Nancy$0923750 701 $aWilliamson$b John$f1937-2021.$0107218 701 $aDeese$b Brian$01893148 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959677903321 996 $aDelivering on debt relief$94540755 997 $aUNINA
