Inhaltsangabe

What is the ‘problem’ of debt when the use of credit not only sustains hopes and dreams for the future, but is also a mode of survival? Whilst rising concern about widespread ‘over-indebtedness’ has raised awareness of the difficulties people face when dealing with multiple debts, there a risk that such terms limit our understanding of the financial and emotional lives of indebted households.This book collects diverse stories and reflections from authors researching household debt burdens. It documents the injustices of debt-based economies in the UK and beyond, but also pays attention to the pleasures and worries of those in debt, as well as the practices and experiences of those seeking to assist debtors.
