商品描述
The Foreclosure Echo tells the story of the ordinary people whose quest for the American dream was crushed in the foreclosure crisis when they were threatened with losing their homes. The authors, Linda E. Fisher and Judith Fox - each with decades of experience defending low-to-moderate-income people from foreclosure and predatory lending practices - have employed a range of legal, economic, and social-science research to document these stories, showing not only how people experienced the crisis, but also how lenders and public institutions failed to protect them. The book also describes the ongoing effects of the crisis - including vacant land and abandoned buildings - and how these conditions have exacerbated the economic plight of millions of people who lost their homes and have increased inequality across the country. This book should be read by anyone who wants to understand the fallout of the last financial crisis and learn what we can do now to avoid another one.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《止贖回聲》講述了那些在止贖危機中追求美國夢的普通人,他們面臨失去家園的威脅。作者琳達·E·費舍(Linda E. Fisher)和朱迪思·福克斯(Judith Fox)各自在保護低至中等收入者免受止贖和掠奪性貸款行為方面擁有數十年的經驗,他們運用了多種法律、經濟和社會科學研究來記錄這些故事,展示人們如何經歷這場危機,以及貸款機構和公共機構如何未能保護他們。這本書還描述了危機的持續影響,包括空置土地和廢棄建築,以及這些情況如何加劇了數百萬失去家園者的經濟困境,並增加了全國的貧富不均。任何想要了解上一次金融危機後果並學習我們現在可以做什麼以避免再次發生的人,都應該閱讀這本書。
