The Oxford Handbook of Political Consumerism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume offers the first comprehensive theoretical and comparative overview of the ways in which the market becomes a political arena. It maps the four major forms of political consumerism: boycotting, buycotting (spending to show support), lifestyle politics, and discursive actions, such as culture jamming. Chapters by leading scholars examine political consumerism in different locations and industry sectors, and in consideration of environmental and humanrights problems, political events, and the ethics of production and manufacturing practices.
