Author of numerous books, including L,empire de la honte (The Empire of Shame), 2005.

Anyone concerned with how excessive Northern wealth flows from sustained Southern poverty needs this analysis. -- Patrick Bond, Director, University of KwaZulu-Natal Centre for Civil Society, Durban, South Africa Eric Toussaint studies the evolution of the debt of Southern countries with painstaking precision and patience. -- Jean Ziegler, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food Eric Toussaint has once again provided absolutely critical information.
