Download or read book The Expert Consumer written by Alain Chatriot and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent work has focused on the politics of consumption and its manifestation in a number of situations. This volume extends these debates, providing a tighter focus and contributing to a noticeable gap in the field that numerous scholars are beginning to turn towards: that is, organizations of consumers themselves who have chosen to speak for all consumers and similar such bodies of experts which act on behalf of consumers. The volume is fortunate in drawing upon a number of scholars who are about to publish major works on the subject, but who are happy to provide summary versions of their work for the volume. The book pays particular attention to specific moments in consumer mobilization and expertise, capturing the range of types of expert consumers across the twentieth century, from ethical consumer groups at the beginning, to intellectuals, housewives, economists and public officials. It addresses questions on the nature of consumer organizing, which bodies can speak for consumers, whether one consumer voice can ever be identified and the relationship between consumption and citizenship. Overview pieces demonstrate the larger narratives involved in the study of the expert consumer, whilst more comparative essays set out the nature of transatlantic exchanges. Other contributions point to the similarities across seemingly different consumption regimes, while case studies of specific organisations and key historical moments draw out the particularities of consumer expertise.

Book Le Contre pouvoir consommateur aux   tats Unis

Download or read book Le Contre pouvoir consommateur aux tats Unis written by Michèle Ruffat and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1986-12-31T23:00:00+01:00 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le contre-pouvoir consommateur s'est construit, aux États-Unis, dans le prolongement du mouvement de réforme sociale du début du XXe siècle, et de la période de fermentation politique des années trente. Mais, à l'époque contemporaine, sa position de « lobby anti-lobby » l'a conduit à se réclamer d'un nouveau type de groupe d'intérêt, les « public interest groups », qui ont en commun, au-delà de la diversité de leurs engagements, l'idée fondamentale, héritée du XVIIIe siècle, de la promotion des droits des citoyens, face aux bureaucraties publiques et privées. En se posant en groupe d'intérêt comparable aux autres grands groupes déjà admis à s'exprimer dans la vie de la nation, le mouvement consommateur est-il parvenu à lever les ambiguïtés, voire les contradictions, qui pesaient sur son entreprise ? A-t-il établi définitivement la légitimité de son action, dans un pays où le conflit des groupes d'intérêt est considéré comme l'essence de la pratique démocratique ? Au-delà de son devenir particulier, son histoire invite à une réflexion sur le rôle des groupes d'intérêt en démocratie, et éclaire le processus d'intégration d'une nouvelle demande sociale dans les institutions publiques et privées.
