Summary: | "The role of the consumer has changed from seeking the most satisfaction from goods and services to reconciling consumption with active citizenship, which links consumption to modern social issues such as environmental protection, sound business ethics, and fair working conditions.

In this book, eminent researchers examine contemporary issues related to the field of consumers, policy, and the environment."--Publisher's website. |
