The situation in Iceland regarding the Icesave legislation referendum.
"The collapse of our banks and the difficulties following in the wake of the world economic crisis have created profound difficulties. Although
the Icelandic state has undertaken various liabilities of a magnitude greater than those involved in the Icesave case, the debate on this case has
become the focus regarding how we deal with the challenge of the pastand also of the future."

The Financial Crisis in Iceland
In the fall of 2008, Iceland experienced its largest financial difficulties in recent history. In the wake of the global financial crisis, the three largest private banks were taken into government administration due to a lack of available credit to finance short term debts, despite substantial assets.
The resulting contraction of the economy has had a profound effect on Iceland and its population. External debt has increased substantially from one of the lowest levels in the world, and sharp increases in unemployment and inflation are having substantial and adverse affects on peoples' lives.
