Summary note

Examining the most pressing questions addressed by consumption studies scholars today, this volume counteracts the tendency towards disciplinary myopia as it engages scholars from around the world drawing on sociology, anthropology, psychology, history, consumption studies, and marketing. The volume's 31 chapters are organised around six themes, facilitating cross-disciplinary exploration. It covers consumer transactions and credit scoring as important drivers of consumer behaviours, race and ethnicity and consumer inequality, brands and branding, the embeddedness of marketing, consumer culture theory, the sharing economy, ethical consumption, environmental sustainability, and variations in urban scenes where consumption thrives.
