Scholars in diverse fields now agree on the importance of
investigating the impact of consumption practices on the global
environment, quality of life, and international justice. In this
comprehensive collection of essays, most of which appear for the
first time, eminent scholars from many disciplines-philosophy,
economics, sociology, political science, demography, theology,
history, and social psychology-examine the causes, nature, and
consequences of present-day consumption patterns in the United
States and throughout the world. Specifically, the essays evaluate
the impact of consumption practices on our own lives, our
institutions, other people, and the environment. The contributors
give explicit attention to the principles relevant for a
consumption ethic, as well as to the policies and practices that
such an ethic permits or requires. These engaging, jargon-free
essays frame the problem of consumption in a variety of ways,
challenging readers to see the issue from new perspectives. For
scholars and students from across the disciplines, as well as for
environmental and consumer activists, this volume will serve as the
touchstone for discussions of consumption and global stewardship.
