It has become an integral part of daily life for millions of Indians, impacting various aspects of their lives: Consumer Behavior: Social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have emerged as powerful marketing channels. They allow brands to reach a vast Indian audience, influencing their purchasing decisions. Product reviews, recommendations, and influencer endorsements on these platforms play a crucial role in shaping what consumers buy. E-commerce: The rise of social commerce in India has been remarkable. Platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp have integrated shopping features, making it easier for consumers to discover and purchase products directly through social media. This has transformed the way Indians shop, making it more convenient and accessible. Trends and Aspirations: Social media exposes Indian consumers to global trends and lifestyles. Influencers and celebrities showcase luxury products, travel destinations, and fashion, which can lead to aspirational consumption patterns. People now often strive to emulate the lifestyles they see online. Information and Awareness: Social media serves as a vital source of information and awareness on various topics, including health, politics, and social issues. Indians use these platforms to stay informed, participate in discussions, and advocate for causes they care about. Entertainment and Content Consumption: Indians increasingly rely on social media for entertainment. Platforms like YouTube, TikTok (now banned in India), and Instagram provide a wide array of content, from short videos to long-form videos, influencing the types of entertainment and content consumption habits of the population. Social Connectivity: Social media keeps Indians connected with friends and family, especially in a country as vast and diverse as India. It has become a primary means of communication and social interaction, influencing how people maintain relationships. Political Engagement: Social media has played a significant role in shaping political discourse and mobilizing voters in India. Political parties use platforms like Twitter and Facebook to engage with the electorate, and citizens use social media to voice their opinions and concerns. In conclusion, social media has become a central force in shaping the lifestyles and behaviors of Indian consumers. It has not only changed how they shop and consume content but also how they perceive themselves and the world around them. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, its impact on Indian consumer lifestyles is likely to grow even further.
Download or read book Lifestyle Media in Asia written by Fran Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across Asia, consumer culture is increasingly shaping everyday life, with neoliberal economic and social policies increasingly adopted by governments who see their citizens as individualised, sovereign consumers with choices about their lifestyles and identities. One aspect of this development has been the emergence of new wealthy middle classes with lifestyle aspirations shaped by national, regional and global media – especially by a range of new popular lifestyle media, which includes magazines, television and mobile and social media. This book explores how far everyday conceptions and experiences of identity are being transformed by media cultures across the region. It considers a range of different media in different Asian contexts, contrasting how the shaping of lifestyles in Asia differs from similar processes in Western countries, and assessing how the new lifestyle media represents not just a new emergent media culture, but also illustrates wider cultural and social changes in the Asian region.

Download or read book Contemporary Publics written by P. David Marshall and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-11 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the twentieth century has been dominated by discussions of the public, public life, and the public sphere, Contemporary Publics argues that, in the twenty-first century, we must complicate the singularity of that paradigm and start thinking of our world in terms of multiple, overlapping, and competing publics. In three distinct streams—art, media and technology, and the intimate life—this volume offers up the intellectual and political significance of thinking through the plurality of our publics. “Countering Neoliberal Publics: Screen and Space,” explores how different artistic practices articulate the challenges and desires of multiple publics. “Making and Shaping Publics: Discourse and Technology” showcases how media shape publics, and how new and emerging publics use these technologies to construct identities. “Commodifying Public Intimacies” examines what happens to the notion of the private when intimacies structure publics, move into public spaces, and develop value that can be exchanged and circulated.
Download or read book Garbage in Popular Culture written by Mehita Iqani and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2020-11-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Garbage in Popular Culture is the first book to explicitly link media discourse, consumer culture and the cultural politics of garbage in contemporary global society. It makes an original contribution to the areas of consumer culture studies, visual culture, media and communications, and cultural theory through a critical analysis of the ways in which waste and garbage are visually communicated in the public realm. Mehita Iqani examines three key themes evident in the global representation of garbage: questions of agency and activism, cultures of hedonism and luxury, and anxieties about devastation and its affect. Each theme is explored through a number of case studies, including zero-waste recycling campaigns communicated on Instagram, to fine art made with waste, popular entertainment festivals, tropical beach tourism, and films about oil spills and plastic waste in oceans. Iqani argues that we need a new vocabulary to think about what it means to be human in this new age of consumption-produced waste, and reflects on what rubbish allows us to learn about our relationship with the natural world.

Download or read book Globalising Everyday Consumption in India written by Bhaswati Bhattacharya and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-21 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together historical and ethnographic perspectives on Indian consumer identities. Through an in-depth analysis of local, regional, and national histories of marketing, regulatory bodies, public and domestic practices, this interdisciplinary volume charts the emergence of Indian consumer society and discusses commodity consumption as a main feature of Indian modernity. Nationalist discourse was shaped by moral struggles over consumption patterns that became a hallmark of middle-class identity. But a number of chapters demonstrate how a wide range of social strata were targeted as markets for everyday commodities associated with global lifestyles early on. A section of the book illustrates how a new group of professionals engaged in advertising trying to create a market shaped tastes and discourses and how campaigns provided a range of consumers with guidance on ‘modern lifestyles’. Chapters discussing advertisements for consumables like coffee and cooking oil, show these to be part of new public cultures. The ethnographic chapters focus on contemporary practices and consumption as a main marker of class, caste and community. Throughout the book consumption is shown to determine communal identities, but some chapters also highlight how it reshapes intimate relationships. The chapters explore the middle-class family, microcredit schemes, and metropolitan youth cultures as sites in which consumer citizenship is realised. The book will be of interest to readers from a range of disciplines, including anthropology, history, geography, sociology, South Asian studies, and visual cultures.
