Summary
The dominant policy response to economic crises over the past four decades has been the introduction of austerity - a mix of budget cuts and reforms to downsize the role of the state. The authors examine the activities of the world's leading advocate of austerity: the International Monetary Fund. As one of the first systematic assessments of the impact of austerity on people's lives around the world, 'A Thousand Cuts' makes an important contribution to the continuing debate on how to foster social protection in light of economic crises and IMF-mandated policy reforms.
