Household over-indebtedness in northern and southern countries: a macro-perspective
Résumé
In the North, indebtedness is a well-documented fact. Little data is available from the South. But there is a growing mismatch between monetary income and cash needs, the source of debt. To grasp its magnitude, the process of financialization is revisited. It is based on a growing monetization of social relationships. The third part discusses a key element of over-indebtedness: inflation. If social relations would allow it, modest inflation would be a relatively peaceful way to solve the problem of growing private and public debt in a way that favours lenders.
