Research Summary
Joseph’s primary field of research is the law relating to consumer/household indebtedness, with a particular focus on personal insolvency law. His doctoral research considered the challenges to traditional personal insolvency principles and doctrines presented in recent decades by the evolving socio-economic and political role of consumer credit and the emergence of the phenomenon of household over-indebtedness.
His research evaluates the extent to which personal insolvency law and policy in countries such as England and Wales and Ireland, as well as at a European Union level, have evolved to meet the conditions of unprecedented levels of household debt in recent decades. As well as evaluating the law in this context, Joseph''s work also examines the political economy of personal insolvency law reform. Alongside his works on personal insolvency law, Joseph has also written on consumer credit regulation and the law relating to the enforcement of judgment debts.
