| Title | The sociology of debt / Mark Featherstone. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource. |
| Series | Policy Press scholarship online |
| Notes | Previously issued in print: 2019. |
| Summary | Over the course of the last ten years the issue of debt has become a serious problem that threatens to destroy the global socio-economic system and ruin the everyday lives of millions of people. This collection brings together a range of perspectives of key thinkers on debt to provide a sociological analysis focused upon the social, political, economic, and cultural meanings of indebtedness. The contributors to the work consider both the lived experience of debt and the more abstract processes of financialisation taking place globally. Showing how debt functions on the level of both macro- and microeconomics, the book also provides a more holistic perspective, with accounts that span sociological, cultural, and economic forms of analysis. |
| Added Author | Featherstone, Mark, editor. |
