Riassunto

An edited collection exploring divisions and changes within and between the spheres of consumption and production. Peter Saunders' work provides the initial stimulus for many of the papers, but all go beyond his narrow conception of a sociology of consumption and his liberal analysis of patterns of social inequality.
