  abstract = {{D}ebt is often thought of as a mere economic variable governed by a simplistic mechanical logic, ignoring its other facets. {W}hose debt, and debt of what exactly ? {T}his volume analyzes debt as a political and social construct, with a multiplicity of purposes and agents. {A}ll of these are vectors of meanings that are highly diverse, and of subtle distinctions ; they show that debt is a transverse phenomenon, cutting across spaces that are not merely economic but also domestic, social and political. {E}ach contributor takes a fresh view of the subject, dealing with debt at a different time, in a different society, on a different scale of observation. {B}y adopting a determinedly interdisciplinary approach, the authors reveal in the phenomenon of debt a diversity of social and gendered determinants that amount in some cases to domination, allegiance or slavery, and in others to solidarity and emancipation. {D}ebt is at one and the same time shared, imposed, political and gendered.},
