structural adjustment  

Definición

  • During the 1970s and 1980s, many poorer non-petroleum-producing countries took out loans to help them pay their hard currency bills for imported goods (including oil) and services. With lower-than-expected economic growth rates in the debtor countries and rising interest rates, the amount of debt and debt service payments (interest on the loans and fees) grew rapidly.
