Produktbeschreibung

This edited collection brings together a range of international studies to explore the role of markets and consumption in the making of mothers. Combining personal accounts from many mothers with different theoretical perspectives, this book examines how marketing and consumer culture constructs particular images of what mothers are, what they should care about and how they should behave.
