Synopsis "Consumerism and Overconsumption"

With the rise of unboxing videos, shopping haul stories, and influencer culture, many believe overconsumption has become a trend that defines today's society. Others argue that this trend is not new and that it is connected to the rise of consumerism that dates back to the Industrial Revolution. These are just two aspects of debates surrounding how we spend our money. Readers are invited to join that debate in this volume, which paints a clear picture of the pros and cons of what many see as today's consumer culture and its effects on the environment, the economy, and mental health.
