A GLOBAL THEORY OF REFLEXIVE DEBT (DELIBERATION)

Project description

Reworking debt as a means towards a sustainable economy

Debt, as an institution, is one of the central principles of modern capitalism. Unfortunately, debt is often perceived as limitless, perpetuating economic, political, cultural and ecological unsustainability. This presents the need to take measures to reshape the concept of debt in the context of a sustainable economy. The EU-funded RESOLVENCY project aims to provide the means through which debt can be reshaped, informing global insolvency law and reintroducing overburdened debtors into the economy while taking political, cultural and ecological concerns into account. The goal is to develop the methodology required to reframe debt, assess its impact on global society and promote sustainable practices.
