Abstract

This paper discusses the potential dangers of adversarial debt management in China between central and local authorities. It draws lessons from Germany’s recent mishandling of the Greek debt crisis to illustrate nuances and stresses the wisdom of cooperation and mutual support in restoring balance to local Chinese finance. Inclusive economic theory provides additional insight.
