The Shopping Experience
Edited by:
- Pasi Falk - University of Helsinki, Finland
- Colin Campbell - University of York, UK
August 1997 | 224 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
This shrewd and probing book seeks to theorize shopping as an autonomous realm. It avoids the reductionist characteristics of economics and marketing. At the same time it avoids the moralizing tone of many contemporary discussions of shopping and consumption. It also contains an appendix which gives a brief history and selected literature of shopping.
