Buchbeschreibung Softcover. Zustand: new. First Edition. Comforting terms such as sustainable development and green production frame environmental debate by stressing technology not green enough economic growth not enough in the right places and population too large Concern about consumption emerges if at all in benign ways as calls for green purchasing or more recycling or for small changes in production processes Many academics policymakers and journalists in fact accept the economists view of consumption as nothing less than the purpose of the economy Yet many people have a troubled intuitive understanding that tinkering at the margins of production and purchasing will not put society on an ecologically and socially sustainable pathConfronting Consumption places consumption at the center of debate by conceptualizing the consumption problem and documenting diverse efforts to confront it In Part 1 the book frames consumption as a problem of political and ecological economy emphasizing core concepts of individualization and commoditization Part 2 develops the idea of distancing and examines transnational chains of consumption in the context of economic globalization Part 3 describes citizen action through local currencies home power voluntary simplicity adbusting and product certification Together the chapters propose cautious consuming and better producing as an activist and policy response to environmental problems The book concludes that confronting consumption must become a driving focus of contemporary environmental scholarship and activism.
