The current literature on consumerism is diverse, scattered, and
unsystematic. This book remedies this by identifying the beginning
of mass consumer society in the United States, starting with the
New Deal. The New Deal framework of guaranteeing new home purchases
by means of low-down payment, fixed-rate home mortgages lasted
until the 1970s, at which time the legal framework unraveled due to
a sustained attack on New Deal racism. Despite this, American
consumerism continued and even flourished without a regulatory
structure. This book analyzes seven key pieces of federal
legislation which undergird American consumer society to this day.
