About Consumer Credit, Debt and Bankruptcy: Comparative and International Perspectives

After a long period of prosperity and steady economic growth, the world's leading economies are now in crisis, although that there will be debate about its origins, the scale and seriousness of the crisis is not in doubt. There is also no doubt that excessive amounts of consumer credit, allied to a weak understanding of how globalized credit markets might react to a crisis, have played a significant part. This book, which is primarily about credit, debt, and the trouble they have led to, is written by authors who have specialized in researching into over-indebtedness — that is, situations in which an individual's debt burden has become overwhelming. For these authors, the plight of individuals is a primary concern, but the wider issue is how credit is used and how it changes societies. The essays in this volume — addressing topics which are fundamental to our understanding of the current crisis — range widely across the whole sector of consumer finance, including mortgages, predatory and unsecured lending, 'credit-binges,' the regulation of consumer lending, bankruptcy, insolvency, repayment plans, debt counseling, and much more. The contributors take a comparative approach, dealing with the US, the UK, Europe, South Africa, Korea, and Japan. The conclusions drawn from the book are equally wide-ranging, but above all, the lesson learned is that the financialization of contemporary life ensures that issues of the appropriate role of credit remains of critical importance in society.
