As We Forgive Our Debtors: Bankruptcy and Consumer Credit in America

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A major contribution to the study of bankruptcy and to our understanding of debtors and creditors who end up in bankruptcy court.

From the Publisher
With the sharp increase in bankruptcies over the past decade and an increasingly wide cross-section of occupational distribution represented, the question treated by this study is both a legal and a sociological one. It does not attempt to study the internal workings of bankruptcy, but the authors look outward to the larger population of bankrupt debtors. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, the authors have drawn social and economic portraits of typical debtors against the backdrop of the law and with hard empirical data.
