Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, more than two million Americans—six out of every 1,000 people—filed for bankruptcy. Though personal bankruptcy rates have since stabilized, bankruptcy remains an important tool for the relief of financially distressed households. In Bankrupt in America, Mary and Brad Hansen offer a vital perspective on the history of bankruptcy in America, beginning with the first lasting federal bankruptcy law enacted in 1898. Interweaving careful legal history and rigorous economic analysis, Bankrupt in America is the first work to trace how bankruptcy was transformed from an intermittently used constitutional provision, to an indispensable tool for business, to a central element of the social safety net for ordinary Americans. To do this, the authors track federal bankruptcy law, as well as related state and federal laws, examining the interaction between changes in the laws and changes in how people in each state used the bankruptcy law. In this thorough investigation, Hansen and Hansen reach novel conclusions about the causes and consequences of bankruptcy, adding nuance to the discussion of the relationship between bankruptcy rates and economic performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bankruptcy in America, in stark contrast to its status in most other countries, typically signifies not a debtor's last gasp but an opportunity to catch one's breath and recoup. Why has the nation's legal system evolved to allow both corporate and individual debtors greater control over their fate than imaginable elsewhere? Masterfully probing the political dynamics behind this question, David Skeel here provides the first complete account of the remarkable journey American bankruptcy law has taken from its beginnings in 1800, when Congress lifted the country's first bankruptcy code right out of English law, to the present day. Skeel shows that the confluence of three forces that emerged over many years--an organized creditor lobby, pro-debtor ideological currents, and an increasingly powerful bankruptcy bar--explains the distinctive contours of American bankruptcy law. Their interplay, he argues in clear, inviting prose, has seen efforts to legislate bankruptcy become a compelling battle royale between bankers and lawyers--one in which the bankers recently seem to have gained the upper hand. Skeel demonstrates, for example, that a fiercely divided bankruptcy commission and the 1994 Republican takeover of Congress have yielded the recent, ideologically charged battles over consumer bankruptcy. The uniqueness of American bankruptcy has often been noted, but it has never been explained. As different as twenty-first century America is from the horse-and-buggy era origins of our bankruptcy laws, Skeel shows that the same political factors continue to shape our unique response to financial distress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bankrupt Law of the United States: With Notes, and a Collection of American and English Decisions Upon the Principles and Practice of the Law of Bankruptcy The Constitution of the United States delegates to Congress "the power to establish uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States." Every commercial country has some system of bankruptcy. It was introduced into the jurisprudence of the Roman empire, and made universal by succeeding Christian emperors. The French and the Teutonic nations have adopted the system in their various codes, and in England it has prevailed for more than two centuries. The power to establish a law of bankruptcy has been exercised intermittently and at considerable intervals, to meet special emergencies arising out of commercial difficulties, and the laws enacted under it were repealed before they had formed even the basis of a system of legislation. The failure of the attempts at legislation upon this important subject is historic. The Bankrupt Act of 1800 was substantially for creditors only. It was a carefully-prepared Digest of the English statutes as they then existed, upon the subject of bankruptcy, without any proper adaptation of the system to the peculiar interests of commerce in this country. The Bankrupt Act of 1841 was in fact for the benefit of debtors only, and it was reported originally as a purely voluntary system. In the course of the discussion in Congress on the bill, amendments were ingrafted upon it which were intended to secure and protect the interests of creditors, but were found by experience to be inefficient and illusory.
