I stumbled across a very interesting article from 1992 by our current Fed Chairman, Ben Bernanke: http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/docs/MeltzerPDFs/bernon83.pdf
In it, he discusses what is essentially a transaction cost approach to the Great Depression - arguing that uncertainty about borrowers substantially raised the "cost of credit intermediation". A scary proposition, because we are certainly facing these types of problems now... Senate Republicans themselves have bemoaned it.
