Description

Explore a new perspective on how people consume in The Political Economy of Consumer Behavior: Contesting Consumption. Part of the Routledge Advances in Social Economics series, this work challenges traditional economic views that rely on self-interested agents and utility maximization. While geographers, historians, and sociologists have long studied the meaning behind consumption, economists have often stuck to narrow theories. Author Pietrykowski offers an alternative account by recovering past attempts to create different analytical approaches to studying consumption. This book examines theories from various disciplines, including the perspectives found in home economics and psycho-social studies. It provides a deep look at the social and economic forces that shape how individuals interact with goods and services. This text is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in social economics, sociology, and the evolving study of human behavior in a consumer-driven world.
