         <description><![CDATA[<div>In general,the IMF/IFC loans haven't hindered the financial recovert of Greece.In contrast,the IMF/IFC has been helped Greece recover from the financial crisis.When the financial crisis was happened,the government has no positive efforts to do,and the EU lose faith in Greece,so IMF/IFC are the new participants of global economy,and they actually irreplaceable helped Greece.So,for the view of internationalist the IFC/IMF helped Greece and this is a sign of the new form of globalization.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This essay will argue that IMF/IFC loans have hindered financial recovery in Greece</div><div>because of its high interest rate.This essay will prove this point by giving several examples. For example,in Greece,the welfare of the people is very good,such as high pension.Meanwhile,Greece spends a lot of money on defense and military because of its bad relations with Turkey.Those huge fees forced Greece to borrow money from IMF/IFC.This position aligns with the negative globalist perspective.</div>]]></description>

The loans offer can be solely provided within specific limitatioin by the IMF/IFC that cannot truly play a role in practice. This position stance with the negative globalism.</div>]]></description>

This position stance with the negative globalism.<br><br><br><br>the huge new IMF/ICF loan to replace the old debt has only kept the situation from being directly exposed in the form of Greece's insolvency.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Greece's economy is indeed hampered by the IMF and other financial institutions.Because the banks were dysfunctional, credit flows had dried up and the demand for private sector investment was not there. In those circumstances, cutting public investment had the opposite effect to the one intended. If consumers and businesses were already retrenching, EFC sucked demand out of the economy. Cutting public sector wages and reducing the value of benefits resulted in lower consumer spending and further depressed private investment.In Greece, this approach led to a spiral of decline as jobs were shed and tax revenues slumped. Public debt went up rather than down, leading to pressure for still more cuts.I think this is consistent with negative globalist's perspective.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Overall,&nbsp; I think that the IMF/IFC loans have hindered Greece's economic recovery. A large part of Greece's economic difficulties is due to the high interest rates on IMF/IFC loans. Because the government can hardly afford the high level of debt, young people are unable to find jobs and retired people are having their pensions reduced. Many people have been forced to leave Greece in search of a better life. As a result of this, the Greek economy is struggling to recover.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This essay argued that IMC/IFC locans have hindered financial recovery in Greece or not. They offer the percentage points in exchange for the Greek portion of the loan but it not help the Greece to get out of deficit finance. They can't get rid of the budget deficit and they can't pay off their loans, this creates a vicious circle. Under the environment of economic globalization, every country should develop their localal economic to improve ther competitiveness, Greece also need to find their good at to develop. The help from outside organizations is only temporary and cannot solve the fundamental problem.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In general, the Greek economy is difficult to recover, the IMF/IFC has a responsibility that cannot be ignored. As the European Central Bank continues to adjust its loan policy and the loan trap of American companies, the Greek government’s foreign debt has dragged down the country.&nbsp; The Greek government economically relies too much on foreign debt and the help of the IMF/IFC, and its domestic economy is almost completely affected by the economic policies of international organizations, which is in line with the perspective of transformationalism.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This essay will argue that as IMF and IFC provided loans to Greece, one&nbsp; of&nbsp; the requirements was for Greece to implement a tight monetary policy in exchange for medium and long-term debt relief, which was detrimental to Greece's financial recovery. As a result of excessive deflation, Greece experienced a decline in assets, weak market demand, serious corporate losses, and ultimately led to an increase in unemployment. This argument is consistent with negative globalist's perspective, because negative globalists hold the view that globalization harms the vulnerable groups.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Overall, this article discusses whether the IMF/IFC loan has hindered Greece's financial recovery. To some extent, the IMF/IFC has briefly mitigated Greek debt crisis, but it has not really solved Greece's financial problems. Because the state power of Greece is relatively weak, long-term dependence on aid will only intensify the country's internal conflicts. This position is consistent with the internationalist view.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This article will discuss how the IMF and other financial institutions are holding back Greece's economic recovery.<br><br>First, Greece's economy is indeed hampered by these financial institutions.<br>The reason is that Greece was already running up international debt even before it was bailed out.International financial institutions, such as the IMF or the IFC, are unwilling to lend to Greece any more and have downgraded its credit rating on sovereign debt because they believe that Greece's fundamental problem is that it needs to change its policies.<br><br>Second, the crisis threatens not only Greece's own economy but also Europe's. The economic collapse of Greece led to the sharp devaluation of the euro, and the shock in the euro's economic zone jeopardized the international status of the euro, thus slowing down the national economic and policy development in the whole region.</div>]]></description>
