DESCRIPTION:Banking on Life & Death, narrated by actor Martin Sheen, presents a highly 
 informative analysis of the origins and development of the IMF and the 
 World Bank. It examines the ways in which these international financial 
 institutions have usurped control of economic and political decision making 
 in Ghana, Brazil, and the Philippines, and analyzes the disastrous effects 
 of their structural adjustment policies.  30 mins, 1995\n\nWhat is the 
 origin of Third World debt? Narrated by actress Julie Harris the video 
 explores how aggressive lending policies in the 1970s helped create the 
 Third World debt and how, beginning in the 1980s, heavy-handed and 
 misguided World Bank and IMF structural adjustment policies exacerbated 
 poverty. The video explains how the multilateral institutions not only 
 weaken national economies but also undermine governments in developing 
 countries. 24 mins, 1999\n\nFollowed by group discussion\n
