Faustian Bargain with the International Monetary Fund

The artwork illustrates the Faustian bargain that all African countries
have to make, which comes at a cost to their financial, industrial,
agricultural, and political sovereignty./
The 3rd Global Nyéléni Forum is set to take place in Sri Lanka this
September. Sri Lanka is a deliberate choice: in 2022, a people’s
uprising—known as Aragalaya—ousted a corrupt neoliberal regime that had
plunged the country into a severe debt crisis and societal distress.
Of Sri Lanka’s staggering US $57 billion external debt, about 32% is
owed to multilateral financial institutions such as the Asian
Development Bank, World Bank (WB), and International Monetary Fund
(IMF), and another 28% is owed to the Paris Club. Nearly a quarter of
the government’s revenue is spent on repaying foreign creditors, and
much of this debt comes with conditions that promote the privatization
of public services and the commodification of land and natural resources.
Sri Lanka is not alone. Twenty African countries are facing debt
distress and nearly half of the world’s population lives in countries
that spend more on debt repayments than on public services.
International financial institutions (IFIs) have reconfigured national
budgets and financial architecture such that the interests of finance
capital take precedence over the well-being and health of people and the
planet. A global pushback is necessary to build food sovereignty and
resilient agroecological food systems.
At a recent dialogue hosted by the Committee on World Food Security,
the Civil Society and Indigenous Peoples’ Mechanism emphatically noted
that there can be no food sovereignty without financial sovereignty!
This edition of the newsletter delves into some of the salient issues
related to this and proposals for a push-back.
