The great recession is changing the way many people live and the way they perceive their prospects for the near and more distant future. Its longer term consequences will not be known for some time, but something can be learned from the effect on individuals and households who experienced financial hardship. This volume uses innovative survey data on the lives of Europeans to investigate the long-term impact of financial hardship on earnings, standards of living, and health.
