Synopsis

The papers in this book deal with the consumption of time, i.e. the time consuming aspects of activities and their evaluation, and with the timing of consumption, i.e. the advancement or postponement of consumption and saving activities. These two aspects of time are considered in an interdisciplinary setting by economists, psychologists and sociologists. Since this unique combination of disciplines is seldom observed, the first part of the book deals especially with the socioeconomic perspective as a research program, including the main paper by Amitai Etzioni. Two general discussion papers also deal with the relationship between the disciplines. Interesting features of this volume are: 1. Interdisciplinary work on the consumption of time, including discussion. 2. Interdisciplinary work on the timing of consumption, including discussion. 3. Discussions of the interdisciplinary approach in this area. 4. An extensive curriculum vitae of Amitai Etzioni.
