Consuming Cultures (Electronic book text)

Consuming Cultures is concerned with the interrelationship of gender and the circuits of consumption, distribution, production and reproduction. While there is an extensive body of work which focuses on gender and consumption or on gender and production, there is little which considers the different ways in which gender intervenes in all parts of the circuit or the linkages between the different elements. In opening up these questions, Consuming Cultures invites a rethinking of the production/distribution/consumption circuit in relation to the new regimes of accumulation, power and politics produced by late capitalism at the end of the millennium.
