Rogoff, Kenneth
Cato Journal, Spring/Summer 2006,v26, #2, pp337-341
For the past four centuries, emerging market debt crises have broken out like clockwork, but in today's world emerging market debts are near record lows and most countries are able to borrow liberally on international capital markets.

Kenneth Rogoff is Thomas D. Cabot Professor of Public Policy and Professor of Economics at Harvard Univeristy
