Workshop: A077 From North to South: denouncing the illegitimate debt of the working classes around the globe

Misuse of property debt, student debt and microcredit

Crises reinforce capitalism and deepen inequality. Household debt is a powerful mechanism to ensure submission. Why should we question it? How can we shake off the yoke?

With the participants we will explore the question of what illegitimate debt is, how it applies to microcredit, student debt and housing debt, and what the solutions are to abolishing them, therefore initiating a transition to an economy free of capitalism.
The workshop will be presented by Éric Toussaint, spokesperson for the international network Committee for the Abolition of Illegitimate Debt (CADTM), and Omar Aziki, member of the ATTAC CADTM Morocco national secretariat and the CADTM international shared secretariat.
