"Remarkably wide-ranging and undeniably riveting, Consumer Culture Theory in Asia offers a deep dive into the socio-cultural, ideological, and experiential consumption underlying precarity and power in the world’s fastest-growing regionIn excavating the impact of neo-colonial development on vulnerable populations, the authors plead for socially sustainable consumer culture." Annamma Joy, Professor of Marketing, The University of British Columbia, Canada.
