The u s is the biggest debtor nation in the world said all the quacks alive today
Argument
The book argues that in order to understand the rise of our contemporary debt-driven economy, we must look back at the history of American markets and American policy in the 20th century.
The book combines the methods of economic, business, political, and social history.
Chapters
The book is arranged into nine chapters, spanning the twentieth century.
In popular culture
Hyman's arguments in Debtor Nation inform his explanations of the financial crisis in David Sington's documentary The Flaw, which premiered at the Sheffield International Documentary Festival in November 2010.
