A propos de cet article

Hardcover, x + 156 pages, index. Missing the dust jacket. Ex-college library (stamped "withdrawn"), uncirculated; an external stamp on all outer page edges, internal catalogue markings. Interior is clean and bright throughout, untanned, with unmarked text and firm binding, free of any foxing and age-spotting. Green boards show uneven sunning to all panels, non-sticky residue of removed labels, faint grubby marks, a touch of rubbing. -- The thesis offers a detailed study of that part of consumer behavior which is status-directed and which encourages individuals to purchase and consume products not for their intrinsic value (i.e. their value in use) but for their extrinsic (i.e. prestige) value.

Chapter 3 develops a research methodology appropriate to the theory. Chapters 4, 5 and 6, then comprise a study of conspicuous consumption as observed in traditional, achieving and affluent societies, while Chapter 7 draws these studies together in perspective. Part 2 (3 Chapters) focuses more specifically on conspicuous consumption in the modern, affluent society and seeks to develop a theoretical model of consumer decision processes relating to such behavior. Chapter 8 is concerned with evaluating the treatment of conspicuous consumption within behavioral theories of consumer demand. Chapter 9 complements Chapter 8 in assessing the contribution of economics and of economic demand theories to the subject. Drawing on Chapters 8 and 9, Chapter 10 then proposes a theoretical model of consumer decision processes with respect to conspicuous consumption in the modern, industrialised society.…
