Medical Bankruptcy
Myriad anecdotes—of a Nobel laureate who sold his medal to pay medical bills, or the more than 250 000 GoFundMe medical campaigns last year—attest to the financial toll of illness on American families. National surveys confirm that medical bills frequently cause financial hardship, and the US Consumer Financial Protection Bureau reported that they were by far the most common cause of unpaid bills sent to collection agencies in 2014, accounting fo…
Graying of U.S. Bankruptcy
As neoliberal ideology and policies gained a foothold in the early 1980s, the social safety net for older Americans contracted. Responsibility for the risks associated with aging, namely retirement income and healthcare costs, was increasingly transferred from the state to the individual. Using data from the Consumer Bankruptcy Project, we report that since 1991, there has been more than a twofold increase in the rate at which older Americans (ag…

Personal Bankruptcy and the Credit Report
Personal bankruptcy has long been assumed to be a mechanism through which indebted families could achieve a financial fresh start. In sociological terms, bankruptcy, because it allows for the discharge of debt and protection of some assets, insures upward social mobility. For the most part, however, the efficacy of bankruptcy to improve families' socioeconomic status remains untested. Based on interviews with more than 700 people who filed for pe…
Managing the Stigma of Personal Bankruptcy
In recent years, the relationship between personal bankruptcy and stigma has generated much discussion and speculation. However, virtually no research has examined the experiences of bankrupt debtors themselves. In this paper, we provide an analysis of bankruptcy stigma based on thirty-seven in-depth interviews with 19 married couples who filed for personal bankruptcy in 1999. The data demonstrate that stigma is a pervasive feature of contemporar…

When Mothers Matter
Previous studies suggest that social class, class background, and social mobility have important consequences for family life. Exploring hypotheses derived from these studies, as well as the literature on intergenerational relations, the authors focus on one key aspect of family relations: adult daughters' ties to their mothers. Analyzing data from the National Survey of Families and Households, the authors explore how employed women's relations …
