By the end of the century, however, the most profitable corporations and banks in the country lent money to millions of American debtors. How did this happen? The first book to follow the history of personal debt in modern America, Debtor Nation traces the evolution of debt over the course of the twentieth century, following its transformation from fringe to mainstream--thanks to federal policy, financial innovation, and retail competition. How did banks begin making personal loans to consumers during the Great Depression? Why did the government invent mortgage-backed securities? Why was all consumer credit, not just mortgages, tax deductible until 1986? Who invented the credit card? Examining the intersection of government and business in everyday life, Louis Hyman takes the reader behind the scenes of the institutions that made modern lending possible: the halls of Congress, the boardrooms of multinationals, and the back rooms of loan sharks. America's newfound indebtedness resulted not from a culture in decline, but from changes in the larger structure of American capitalism that were created, in part, by the choices of the powerful--choices that made lending money to facilitate consumption more profitable than lending to invest in expanded production. From the origins of car financing to the creation of subprime lending, Debtor Nation presents a nuanced history of consumer credit practices in the United States and shows how little loans became big business. 410 0$aPolitics and society in twentieth-century America. 606 $aConsumer credit$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDebt$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aLoans, Personal$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xEconomic conditions$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xEconomic policy$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aAmerican banks. 610 $aAmerican capitalism. 610 $aAmerican consumers. 610 $aAmerican economy. 610 $aFederal Housing Administration. 610 $aFederal Reserve. 610 $aNational City Bank. 610 $aNew Deal housing policy. 610 $aRegulation W. 610 $aRoosevelt administration. 610 $aTitle I loan program. 610 $aborrowing. 610 $abusiness loans. 610 $acapitalism. 610 $acommercial banks. 610 $acommercial loans. 610 $aconsumer credit. 610 $aconsumer debt. 610 $aconsumer lending. 610 $aconsumption. 610 $acredit access. 610 $acredit activists. 610 $acredit card investments. 610 $acredit card. 610 $acredit cards. 610 $acredit institutions. 610 $acredit rating. 610 $acredit system. 610 $acredit use. 610 $acredit. 610 $adebt. 610 $adebtors. 610 $aentrepreneurial innovation. 610 $afederal policy. 610 $afinancial institutions. 610 $agovernmental policy. 610 $ahome equity loans. 610 $aindustrial economy. 610 $ainstallment credit. 610 $ainvestment capital. 610 $alegal lending. 610 $alegalized personal loans. 610 $alending. 610 $amaterial prosperity. 610 $amodern America. 610 $amodern credit system. 610 $amodern debt. 610 $amoney lending. 610 $amortgages. 610 $anational mortgage markets. 610 $apersonal debt. 610 $apersonal lending. 610 $apersonal loan departments. 610 $apersonal loans. 610 $apostwar United States. 610 $apostwar prosperity. 610 $aregulation. 610 $aresidential housing. 610 $arevolving credit. 610 $asocial status. 610 $awealth inequality. 615 0$aConsumer credit$xHistory 615 0$aDebt$xHistory 615 0$aLoans, Personal$xHistory 676 $a332.70973 700 $aHyman$b Louis$f1977-$01043435 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458448703321 996 $aDebtor nation$92468406 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02338nas 2200805- 450 001 996201155703316 005 20240116213021.0 011 $a1995-0721 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2423552-0 035 $a(OCoLC)232331091 035 $a(CKB)110978984441791 035 $a(CONSER)--2019207603 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110978984441791 100 $a20080619a19959999 --- - 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aGravitation and cosmology 210 1$a[Moscow] :$cPleiades Publishing 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 300 $a"Quarterly journal of Russian Gravitational Society and Russian Peoples' Friendship University." 311 $a0202-2893 517 1 $aG & C 517 1 $aGravitat?sii?a i kosmologii?a 531 $aGRAVIT.
