This represents an important breakthrough for economists who have long sought to, but been unable to tackle, first-order questions such as why countries have differential debt tolerance, and how debt levels affect the scope for countercyclical policy in recessions and financial crises.

A Directory of existing publicly-available sovereign debt databases, featuring compilations by institutions and individual researchers, is also included.
