Finding and making place in consumer culture theory research
(2023) Consumer Culture Theory Conference 2023 (CCTC2023)- Abstract
- We challenge extant conceptualizations of place as a context or object of consumption. In contrast to essentialist notions of commercial scapes and contested imaginaries, we bring forth a critical relational ontology and the concept of “dialectical utopianism” to advance discussions on place in CCT research.
