Debtonation? When and Why will it Happen?

In: The Coming First World Debt Crisis

Author

  • Ann Pettifor

Abstract

In this chapter I want to explore and list potential ‘debtonators’ — events or imbalances likely to trigger a prolonged First World debt-deflationary crisis. Included in the list is the threat posed by events related to climate change, like Hurricane Katrina; house price crashes; a rise in interest rates and a cut in consumer spending; the threat posed by the US deficit and a dollar collapse; and finally the oil price shock.
