Our growing national debt has dropped out of the headlines recently—but that doesn’t mean that the problem has gone away. The national debt recently topped $17.5 trillion, and is projected to reach $27 trillion by 2024. Worse yet, if you include the unfunded liabilities of Social Security and Medicare, the U.S. real indebtedness exceeds $83 trillion. Despite these undeniable facts, politicians from both parties continue to avoid making the difficult decisions that must be made.
Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid alone account for 48 percent of federal spending today, a portion that will only increase more rapidly with the newest entitlement program, Obamacare. The truth is that there is no way to address America’s debt problem without reforming entitlements.
Going for Broke provides a critical, in-depth analysis of these entitlement programs and lays out much needed solutions for real reform.
In the 1970s and 1980s the countries of Latin America dealt with their similar debt problems in very different ways–ranging from militantly market-oriented approaches to massive state intervention in their economies–while their political systems headed toward either democracy or authoritarianism. Applying the tools of modern political economy to a developing-country context, Jeffry Frieden analyzes the different patterns of national economic and political behavior that arose in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Venezuela. This book will be useful to those interested in comparative politics, international studies, development studies, and political economy more generally. “Jeffry Frieden weaves together a powerful theoretical framework with comparative case studies of the region’s five largest debtor states. The result is the most insightful analysis to date of how the interplay between politics and economics in post-war Latin America set the stage for the dramatic events of the 1980s.”–Carol Wise, Center for Politics and Policy, Claremont Graduate School
In the wake of the global financial crisis, most of the discussion has been focused on questions of debt. And the response, almost uniformly, has been austerity and privatization: cuts to services that have been painted as forms of reckless spending by a bloated public sector. In Debt or Democracy, Mary Mellor turns the whole conversation upside down, showing that the important question is not who owes what, but who controls the creation and circulation of money in the first place. When the problem is examined from that angle, it becomes clear that privatization, far from being the answer to our problem, is the very source of it—the subordination of public finance to private interest.
A direct challenge to conventional economic thinking, Debt or Democracy offers a bracing new analysis of our economic crisis and offers cogent, radical alternatives to create a more just and sustainable economic future.

In The Debt, criminal defense attorney Peter ChAvez is summoned by the man who saved his life more than thirty years earlier in Vietnam to defend the man’s son on charges of murder and rape of a beautiful Russian journalist in the mysterious and corrupt Russian Far East. Despite his pending presidential nomination to the U.S. District Court bench, the debt that ChAvez owes to the man makes refusal impossible. The setting is the Island of Sakhalin in the Russian Far East, a territory that Russia and Japan still dispute–a place rich with oil and gas, and where the remnants of communism contest with the new corrupt capitalism of post-Soviet Russia. The author is the former Chief Justice of the Oregon Supreme Court, now a Distinguished Jurist in Residence at Willamette University College of Law, and before ascending to the bench, a successful trial and appellate attorney.
