Abstract

This paper investigates how external debts influence sustainable development in emerging economies and low-income countries from 101 countries from 2016 to 2020. External debt significantly aids countries in achieving their sustainable development goals but affects individual goal differently. While external debts promote well-being, education quality, gender equality, employment, economic growth, and institutional strength, they negatively affect the sustainability of cities, communities, and ecosystems. Long-term external and public debts make a significant contribution to promoting sustainable development, but excessive external borrowing could hamper sustainable development progress.

外债能否促进新兴国家和低收入国家的可持续发展？

本文研究了从 2016 年到 2020 年，外债如何影响 101 个新兴经济体和低收入国家的可持续发展。外债大大有助于各国实现可持续发展目标，但对各个目标的影响却各不相同。外债在促进福祉、教育质量、性别平等、就业、经济增长和机构实力的同时，也对城市、社区和生态系统的可持续性产生了负面影响。长期外债和公共债务为促进可持续发展做出了重大贡献，但过度的外部借贷可能会阻碍可持续发展的进程。

期刊介绍： The Journal aims to publish the best research on international development issues in a form that is accessible to practitioners and policy-makers as well as to an academic audience. The main focus is on the social sciences - economics, politics, international relations, sociology and anthropology, as well as development studies - but we also welcome articles that blend the natural and social sciences in addressing the challenges for development. The Journal does not represent any particular school, analytical technique or methodological approach, but aims to publish high quality contributions to ideas, frameworks, policy and practice, including in transitional countries and underdeveloped areas of the Global North as well as the Global South.
