The implementation of sustainable consumption presents one of the
greatest challenges of our era. Consumption is a wanted and
necessary phenomenon, integral to our society and economy, yet our
way of consuming contradicts important ecological and social
long-term goals. Although research on sustainable consumption has
gained in importance and been addressed by various disciplines,
this original new book is one of the few to compile and summarize
the important research findings. Against this background, the
Handbook of Research on Sustainable Consumption provides an
interdisciplinary overview of recent research on the ecological and
social obstacles we face through over consumption, drawing
attention to the salience of the subject and stimulating discussion
in this area. In 27 chapters, leading authorities in the field
provide concise and accessible expertise, covering a wide range of
approaches from psychology to economics. This collection will be a
useful point of reference for students, researchers and policy
makers seeking a wider understanding of the state-of-the-art of
sustainable consumption research. Contributors: G. Antonides, C.
