Resumen

¿Hay situaciones en la cuales el estado no debería pagar una deuda soberana adquirida de forma legítima? Este artículo sostiene que cuando el pago de deuda no odiosa viola los derechos humanos de la ciudadanía, esto constituye una razón normativa importante para priorizar los derechos humanos por sobre el pago de la deuda soberana. Dado que existen razones específicas, no casuales, para temer que un alto endeudamiento de los estados pueda resultar en el socavamiento de los derechos humanos socioeconómicos y colectivos de la ciudadanía, este artículo defiende lo siguiente: cuando el pago de la deuda socava los derechos humanos, los estados tienen una razón normativa importante para priorizar el cumplimiento de estos últimos sobre el cumplimiento de sus obligaciones contractuales de pago de deuda frente a sus acreedores.
