The case is a symptom of the current flawed market-based system for resolving sovereigndebt crises. It raises fundamental issues that the global community is addressing.This article provides background for the ongoing debate on how to fix the frameworks for sovereigndebt restructuring. It focuses on three sets of questions:1) Are there quick fixes, e.g. restoring concepts such as sovereign immunity, or improvements inthe private contractual approach?2) What are the most important improvements in the private contractual approach? To what extentwill these solve the problem? Are they politically achievable?3) To the extent that quick fixes and private contractual approaches do not do the tricks, thereis an obvious need for a more collective approach. What would an ideal solution look like? Are therehalfway houses, politically achievable?. El reciente fallo del juez Griesa en la reestructuración de la deuda argentina ha dado lugar a preguntasde gran relevancia para los mercados de deuda internacionales. El caso es un síntoma de un sistema de resolución de crisis de deuda que no funciona –sistema en el que se confía demasiado en la capa-cidad de los mercados para resolver las crisis. El fallo pone en el centro de la escena un conjunto de problemas fundamentales que la comunidad global está intentando resolver. Este artículo provee un marco para el debate actual sobre como resolver las deficiencias en las res-tructuraciones de deuda soberana. En particular, se enfoca en tres conjuntos de preguntas: 1) ¿Hay soluciones sencillas y rápidas, como restaurar la inmunidad soberana, o cambios dentrodel enfoque contractual privado? 2) ¿Qué cambios se pueden implementar dentro del enfoque contractual? ¿En qué medida re-suelven los problemas existentes? ¿Son políticamente alcanzables? 3) En la medida en que esas propuestas no resuelvan los problemas, hay una necesidad obviade un enfoque colectivo. ¿Cómo sería una solución ideal? ¿Hay soluciones intermedias políticamentealcanzables?. application/pdf https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2545 eng Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política (IIEP UBA-CONICET) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2545/3279 Documentos de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; Núm. 7 (2015): Documento de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política UBA CONICET; 1-15 Working Papers series at Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; No. 7 (2015): Working paper of Interdisciplinary Institute of Political Economy of Buenos Aires UBA CONICET; 1-15 2451-5728 Deuda Soberana Reestructuración Enfoque Contractual Enfoque Estatutario Sovereign Debt Reestructuring Contractual Approach Statutory Approach In the quest of a framework for sovereign debt restructuring En busca de un marco para la reestructuración de la deuda soberana info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=dociiep&d=2545_oai
