Abstract:
AbstractThe ultimate aim of health care policy is good care at good prices. Managed care failed to achieve this goal through influencing providers, so health policy has turned to the only market-based option left: treating patients like consumers. Health insurance and tax policy now pressure patients to spend their own money when they select health plans, providers, and treatments. Expecting patients to choose what they need at the price they want, consumerists believe that market competition will constrain costs while optimizing quality. This classic form of consumerism is today's health policy watchword.This article evaluates consumerism and the regulatory mechanism of which it is essentially an example — legally mandated disclosure of information. We do so by assessing the crucial assumptions about human nature on which consumerism and mandated disclosure depend. Consumerism operates in a variety of contexts in a variety of ways with a variety of aims. To assess so protean a thing, we ask what a patient's life would really be like in a consumerist world The literature abounds in theories about how medical consumers should behave. We look for empirical evidence about how real people actually buy health plans, choose providers, and select treatments.We conclude that consumerism, and thus mandated disclosure generally, are unlikely to accomplish the goals imagined for them. Consumerism's prerequisites are too many and too demanding. First, consumers must have choices that include the coverage, care-takers, and care they want. Second, reliable information about those choices must be available. Third, information must be put before consumers, especially by doctors. Fourth, consumers must receive the information. Fifth, the information must be complete and comprehensible enough for consumers to use it. Sixth, consumers must understand what they are told. Seventh, consumers must be willing to analyze the information. Eighth, consumers must actually analyze the information and do so well enough to make good choices.Our review of the empirical evidence concludes that these prerequisites cannot be met reliably most of the time. At every stage people encounter daunting hurdles. Like so many other dreams of controlling costs and giving patients control, consumerism is doomed to disappoint. This does not mean that consumerist tools should never be used. It means they should not be used unadvisedly or lightly, but discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of error.

First, consumers must have choices that include the coverage, care-takers, and care they want. Second, reliable information about those choices must be available. Third, information must be put before consumers in helpful ways, especially by doctors. Fourth, the information must be complete and comprehensible enough for consumers to use it. Fifth, consumers must understand what they are told. Sixth, consumers must actually analyze the information and do so well enough to make good choices. Our review of the empirical evidence concludes that these pre­requisites cannot be met reliably most of the time. At every stage people encounter daunting hurdles. Like so many other dreams of controlling costs and giving patients control, consumerism is doomed to disappoint. This does not mean that consumerist tools should never be used. If all that consumerism accomplished is to raise general cost-consciousness among patients, still, it could make a substantial contribution to the larger cost-control efforts by insurers and the government. Once patients bear responsibility for much day-to-day spending on their health needs, they should be increasingly sensitized to the difficult trade-offs that abound in medical care and might even begin to understand that public and private health insurers have a legitimate interest in controlling medical spending.

Abstract:
Consumers are increasingly valuing environmental concern and green consumerism to drive the positive roles of stakeholders. However, the intervening normative roles of regulatory bodies, companies, and distributors remain challenging, signalling for evidence-based investigation. This study examines normative environmental roles of stakeholders’ effect on consumers environmental concern and green consumerism. A theoretical model is proposed that tests how normative environmental roles mediates between consumers’ concern for environment and green consumerism. Using quasi-systematic sampling data of 202 consumers across China, the empirical findings of structural equations modelling proved the perceived environmental roles of regulatory bodies and intermediaries significantly mediate the relationship between consumers’ concern for the environment and green consumerism. Consumers’ environmental concern is also found to have substantial and direct effects on the normative environmental roles of stakeholders. However, contrary to the predicted model, the intervening normative roles of company CSR were found insignificant between ecological concerns and green behavior adoption. The findings reveal that normative environmental roles of the government and intermediaries, unlike the roles perceived by companies, effect green consumerism. Contributions to green consumerism theory, including the direct and intervening normative roles of environmental stakeholders, cited research roadmaps, and managerial implications.

Abstract:
The article investigates how consumerism is perceived as an unremarkable part of quotidian existence, as a patriotic duty at various moments, as an indicator of social class, and as a means of semiotic self-fashioning. In consumerism, the tension between the sumptuary restraint on conspicuous consumption, which characterized the early Protestant ethic, and the dependence of capitalism itself on boundless commodity circulation, emerges again and again. I investigate how certain forms of consumerism, relating to excess and improper storage, are reclassified in medical terms. I also investigate modes of strategic consumerism, which try to bridge the gap between producer and consumer, and how certain forms of performative labor are themselves consumed. I close with a few reflections on sites for future study: shopping as a form of underrecognized labor, and an auto-ethnographic turn for academics, inspecting the reach of consumerism into academic practices and universities themselves.

Full text
Abstract:
The history of consumerism shows that consumer movements in developed countries with capitalist economies in general, and in the United States in particular, have had great success in helping customers get safer products (car seat belts), more information (product labels), and better market regulation (the Consumer Product Safety Act). Consumer interests in developed countries are represented by several sets of organizations with different concerns. These consumer interests are fragmented but well articulated, whereas in developing countries, consumer interests are homogeneous and unarticulated. Moreover, compared with the hyper-connected world we live in today, in the past greater efforts were required to mobilize consumers for consumerism actions such as protests, boycotts, calls for policy change, and demands for more government regulations. The purpose of this study is to develop a testable model of consumerism, with a focus on market settings within a developed country, the United States, and a developing country, Saudi Arabia. The goals are to (a) understand why some consumers go beyond the norm to engage in consumerism behaviors, and (b) whether their level of consumerism differs between that of a developed and a developing country, and if so, why. To this end, a consumerism model based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) was developed. The research provides the first set of data and the first quantitative analysis regarding consumerism behaviors in conjunction with the use of an online platform (Twitter) among Saudi Arabian and American consumers. The developed model explained consumerism behaviors. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that the Saudi sample had a higher level of intent to engage in consumerism behaviors than did the American sample. Also, this study shows that the Saudi sample had a negative perception of government regulatory practices and a higher level of intent to engage in consumerism behaviors on Twitter than the American sample. Thus, in Saudi Arabia, a country with a restricted civil society and only one semi-independent consumer protection organization, more consumers use Twitter as a consumerism platform than in the US, a country with an unrestricted civil society and numerous independent consumer organizations.

Abstract:

The political development in the Western world is transforming. Political party participation decreases as well as other non-profit associations. This individualistic development is described as a threat to democracy. Nevertheless, some scholars argue that the political participation is a transformation into a new type of participation that instead could strengthen the democracy.

The political parties are the foundation of the democratic system and they receive their power by representing the citizens in the decision making process. Yet, the parties transform from organisations with a close linkage to their core groups, to catch-all organisations that aim to maximise votes. Since the goal for parties is to attain as much power as possible, new parties and other political actors have effectively been kept out of political system.

The individualistic development is observed through the political consumerism in this thesis. The political consumption is described as a political activity where consuming is used as the mean to impact. To actively select products that represent certain values influence companies to work for those values. It is a free individualistic movement without rules. If asked to describe the typical political consumer it would be a young female with a higher education and thus, an income above average. The political consumer prefers to be involved in issues of personal interest rather than broad party politics. Companies are believed to contain a great deal of power in society and must therefore also obtain responsibility.

The problems associated to political consumerism are connected to poor information. Citizens may make wrong political decisions since the information presented to them is poor or faulty. Another problem is the lack of tools to measure political consumption; we do not know how important it is in comparison to other political activities.

It is difficult to compare traditional politics with political consumerism since they target different issues and work in different ways. However, political consumerism is not a threat to traditional politics and should instead be recognised as a compliment.


Den politiska utvecklingen i västvärlden håller på att förändras. Deltagandet i politiska partier och ideella organisationer minskar och denna individualistiska trend anses vara ett hot mot demokratin. Dock finns det forskare som hävdar att det politiska deltagandet påvisar en förändring till en ny typ av deltagande som kan stärka det demokratiska systemet.

De politiska partierna utgör basen för det demokratiska systemet. Partiets makt grundas i att representera medborgarna i beslutsprocessen. Trots det utvecklas partierna från organisationer med en klar koppling till sina kärnväljare till röstmaximerande organisationer som vill attrahera den breda massan. Eftersom partiernas mål är att få så många röster som möjligt har nya partier och andra politiska aktörer effektivt kvarhållits utanför systemet.

I den här uppsatsen observeras den individualistiska trenden genom politisk konsumtion. Den politiska konsumtionen beskrivs som en politisk aktivitet där konsumtion används som påverkningsmetod. Att aktivt välja produkter som representerar vissa värden påverkar företag att jobba mot dessa värden. Det är en fri och individualistisk rörelse utan klara regler. Den typiska polisiska konsumenten är en ung kvinna med högre utbildning och en inkomst över genomsnittet. De politiska konsumenterna föredrar att involvera sig i frågor av personligt intresse istället för bred partipolitik. Företag anses ha mycket i samhället och måste därför också ta ett ansvar.

Problemen med politisk konsumtion är kopplade till dålig information. Medborgare kan ta felaktiga politiska beslut när den disponibla informationen är dålig eller oriktig. Ett annat problem är att det saknas verktyg att mäta politisk konsumtion. Vi vet inte hur viktigt fenomenet är i förhållande till andra politiska aktiviteter.

Det är svårt att jämföra politisk konsumtion med traditionell politik eftersom de jobbar på olika sätt mot olika frågor. Hursomhelst, politisk konsumtion är inte ett hot mot traditionell politik utan bör snarare ses som ett komplement.

Abstract:
Marketing and consumer research scholars have paid little attention to the contemporary Indian consumer landscape, with even less focus on the particular experiences of female consumers in this context. This thesis contributes to a partial redress of this parochial and Eurocentric status quo in consumer culture research by presenting the voices and critically exploring the lived experiences of consumer culture of a sample of young female Indians. A selective review of the multidisciplinary literatures on globalization, consumer culture and India is used to develop a conceptual framework for this thesis, and to situate the research aims in contemporary and relevant scholarship. The aims of the research are to understand and describe the meanings, values and lived experience of contemporary consumer culture of a sample of young female Indian consumers; to establish the extent to which, and describe how, global flows of culture serve to hinder, propagate or catalyze markers of distinction between rural and urban consumers; and to establish whether and how traditional belief systems and practices influence young consumers’ identity projects in contemporary Indian society. In addressing these aims, the thesis documents the design and execution of a two month multi-method interpretive research study of twenty three young urban and rural women living in New Delhi and at its fringes. Through coding and categorisation, a reading of the data presents three key findings. Firstly, that media is an important medium through which notions of urban and rural identity and difference are constructed. Secondly it demonstrates how the body, as site of consumption, becomes tempered through Vedic ideals of womanhood. Thirdly, it presents a context specific understanding of consumer culture in the East which previous research has masked. Additionally, a data-driven framework for understanding the consumer experience of the sample of respondents is also presented.

Abstract:
While criminology has always enjoyed a highly productive relationship with the city, generating many innovative empirical and theoretical studies, this dissertation asserts that, too often, the conceptualization of urban crime that stems from these varied accounts is somewhat limited. Most significantly, these accounts have left us with a very lopsided interpretation of the crime-city nexus that frequently distils human experience, social diversity and the inherently pluralistic fabric of city life, to leave only the discourse of demographics, statistics, environmental multi-factorialism and rationality. In an effort to address this shortcoming, this work begins by bringing together research from both within and outside of the mainstream criminological enterprise - most notably, social theory, urban studies, architectural theory and research into urban consumption practices - in a bid to present a more rounded account of the contemporary `urban experience', and, importantly, its relationship to urban crime. Central to the thesis is the argument that the late modern urban experience is increasingly constituted around the new and distinct social and cultural practices associated with a fast-paced consumer society. It is asserted that not only is consumer culture bringing about changes in the physical and structural nature of urban space, but it is also precipitating and engendering within individuals new and distinctly 'postmodern' forms of concomitant subjectivity that, in many cases, find expression through crime. Drawing on various insights of the `new cultural criminology' - most notably the work of Jack Katz (1988) - the thesis sets out to identify and explore the overlapping theoretical terrain that now exists between the categories of urban experience, consumerism and crime - the express intention being to formulate these insights into a tentative conceptual framework for thinking about certain forms of criminality under the unique conditions of late modernity.

Abstract:
In dieser Studie werde ich die Kundalini Yoga Lehrergemeinschaft in Berlin als meine Fallstudie nehmen, um zu untersuchen, inwieweit kulturelle Hybridität in diesem Yoga-Strom gestaltet wird. Ich werde beschreiben, wie die betreffende Community Sikh-Elemente in ihren Unterricht einbezieht und gleichzeitig das westliche Publikum anspricht, indem sie Kundalini Yoga an den lokalen Kontext anpasst. Ich werde auch mitnehmen welche Rolle Konsumismus bei der Gestaltung der Gemeinschaftskultur spielt, wobei die entstandene hybride Kultur aus einer Mischung östlicher und westlicher Elemente besteht. Diese Dissertation konzentriert sich auf die Frage, wie Kundalini Yoga in Berlin (oder besser gesagt seine Lehrer) eine hybride Kultur schafft, in der Yoga für eine Praxis geeignet ist, die in der dominierenden kapitalistischen Kultur in Berlin akzeptabel ist (z. B. Yoga auf Fitness und Stress reduzieren), während gleichzeitig neue Elemente und Bedeutungen in diese dominante Kultur eingefügt werden, die zur Bildung einer lokalen KundaliniYoga-Kultur beitragen, die durch die Funktionsweise des Konsums vorangetrieben wird. Ziel dieser Forschung ist es, einen Beitrag zur Erforschung der (kulturellen) Hybridisierung angesichts der Globalisierung zu leisten. Darüber hinaus wird meine Arbeit zur Erforschung des Yoga beitragen und meine Arbeit wird die Hybridisierung neu konzipieren, indem ich die Rolle des Konsums bei der Hybridisierung lokaler Kulturen untersuche.
In this thesis, I will take the Kundalini Yoga teacher community in Berlin as my case study in order to investigate the extent to which cultural hybridity is present in this yoga stream. I will discuss how the community in question incorporates Sikh elements in their classes, while also catering to their western audience by adapting Kundalini Yoga to fit the local context. Also, I will look at the role consumerism plays in shaping a community culture that consists of a mix of eastern and western elements. This thesis focusses on the question of how does Kundalini Yoga in Berlin (or rather its teachers) create a hybrid culture where yoga is appropriated to a practice that is acceptable in the dominant capitalist culture in Berlin (e.g. reducing yoga to a fitness and stress- reduction practice), while also inserting into that dominant culture new elements and meanings, contributing to the formation of a local Kundalini Yoga culture, propelled by the workings of consumerism? The objective of this research is to contribute to the body of research on (cultural) hybridization in the face of globalization. Furthermore, my work will contribute to the body of research on yoga and my work will re-conceptualize hybridization by looking at the role consumerism plays in the hybridization of local cultures.

Abstract:
Minimalism has appeared in recent years as a lifestyle that helps people regain control over their lives when they are feeling overwhelmed by work and expectations. It seems that what most of us perceive as our personal failure to meet demands is in reality a perfectly normal phenomenon in today’s world governed by consumerism. As observed by philosopher Herbert Marcuse, people have become trapped in consumerism. Consumerism has embedded in us a need for consumption, a need that we can no longer identify as false because it subjectively feels as our own. Minimalism is an attempt to simplify one’s life in order to gain more enjoyment and fulfilment and it involves becoming aware of the trap of consumerism. By consciously choosing to own fewer material possessions people have been able to free themselves from unfulfilling pursuits and exhausting work hours. The main idea is that the fewer material needs we have, the more freedom we gain and this idea is nothing new. The very same principle was taught by Diogenes in Ancient Greece. Diogenes lived with minimal material possessions to show that happiness was possible even without money or social status and this ancient wisdom is still relevant today. Key words: minimalism, consumerism, Marcuse, Diogenes

Abstract:
Orchestrated irrationality in our public discourse is produced by technologically enhanced and commercially purposed atomization and tribalism. Public discourse now leans away from a humane, free, and reasoned political rationality and towards self-interested, calculative, herd conformism. The bulls and bears of consumer society have largely displaced the civic logic of the liberal democratic pursuit of the common good. The power interests that govern global consumerism are enhanced by subordinating the common good ends of genuinely political life to the self-interested and profit driven dynamics of the market. Orchestrated irrationality in our public discourse makes politics into a meaningless theatre of incommensurate tribal interest narratives, which is a convenient distraction from the collaborative consolidation of market power and state control. This orchestrated irrationality can only be combatted by seeking to de-atomize citizens and de-tribalize the public square in order to recover the priority of political life over market and authoritarian power in our public discourse. That is, a postcapitalist civilization that is oriented to a genuinely political and universally moral rationality must replace the present global order. Once we can identify the problem and the direction of cure for orchestrated irrationality, we can then take steps towards a different civilizational life-world.
