| Summary: | This book explores the IMF-Jamaica, relationship since 2010, examining Jamaica's high debt and inability to access financial support amid international capital market restrictions, contextualizing harsh socioeconomic realities. With Jamaica's second return to the IMF, actor networks of governance amid political and socioeconomic efforts to reengender a relationship are foregrounded, with a new IMF. Credibility is demonstrated and restored, furthering the success of the 2013 Extended Fund Facility and exit to a Precautionary Stand-By Arrangement in 2016. Clarke and Nelson reveal lessons learned, discussing Jamaica's economic prognosis and the IMF relationship under the shadow of the COVID pandemic. |
