Over the past twenty years, questions concerning the nature of early modern European consumption have increasingly become the object of critical focus for historians and cultural theorists. Why did such changes arise? Did they create a consumer society in the 18th century? What relationships did they bear to the Industrial Revolution, to colonialism, and to modernization in general.
In Consumption and the Making of Respectability, historian Woodruff Smith focuses on the radical alterations that occurred between 1600 and 1800 in European consumption of commodities produced overseas and provides an extremely significant and seldom-investigated process of cultural construction.
