This book focuses on the bridges that connect the dynamic relations
between consumer actions, the marketplace, and cultural meanings.
Answering the challenge to do more than merely cross the boundaries
between these fields, the authors in this volume also undertake the
far harder work of bridging them. Consequently, this book is a rich
and topical array of research projects which engage in a variety of
theoretical and empirical boundary crossings. The authors' diverse
methodologies span archival research, visual content analysis,
ethnography and phenomenological interviewing. Their research
contexts are distinctly globally diverse, as reflected in the
topics of their studies: aid in contemporary Syrian refugee camps
in Germany; early twentieth-century Swedish advertisements for
kitchens; family formation in twenty-first-century Sri Lanka;
Brazilian book (de)collectors; and the signification of magazine
covers in India. Overall, the book makes for compelling reading
across and beyond conventional boundaries associated with the study
of consumption, markets and culture. This book was originally
published as a peer-reviewed special issue of Consumption Markets
& Culture.
