초록

This study explores the theoretical foundations for consumer rights by drawing on broader human rights theories and consumer marketing literature. The study examines credit card debt through this theoretical lens and develops a model of consumer rights. The model is developed through a synthesis of rights literature and document analysis of newspaper articles about credit cards and debt. The study identifi es two primary tensions. The fi rst is a call for individual responsibility versus a call for protection of consumer rights. The second is the perception that credit cards either facilitate or inhibit quality of life and self-fulfi lment. The position in this tension-ridden, arguably paradoxical space depends on beliefs and perceptions about human frailty, institutional precariousness, confl ict, and locus of sympathy. This rights model can be used to understand the conditions where the pressure for consumer rights is either amplifi ed or inhibited.

Abstract

This study explores the theoretical foundations for consumer rights by drawing on broader human rights theories and consumer marketing literature. The study examines credit card debt through this theoretical lens and develops a model of consumer rights. The model is developed through a synthesis of rights literature and document analysis of newspaper articles about credit cards and debt. The study identifi es two primary tensions. The fi rst is a call for individual responsibility versus a call for protection of consumer rights. The second is the perception that credit cards either facilitate or inhibit quality of life and self-fulfi lment. The position in this tension-ridden, arguably paradoxical space depends on beliefs and perceptions about human frailty, institutional precariousness, confl ict, and locus of sympathy. This rights model can be used to understand the conditions where the pressure for consumer rights is either amplifi ed or inhibited.
