This paper examines the impact of external public debt on the economic growth of developing countries. It delves into the dynamics of borrowing, debt service, and their effects on long-term economic development. The study analyzes established economic growth theories, including the neoclassical and endogenous growth models, to understand the intricate relationships between investment, technology, and labor that shape a nation's economic trajectory. It further explores the implications of debt through liquidity constraint and debt overhang theories, highlighting the potential crowding-out effect and diminished local resources for development due to debt service obligations.
