Description: Sustainable Consumption : The Implications Of Changing Infrastructures Of Provision, Hardcover by Southerton, Dale (EDT); Chappells, Heather (EDT); Vliet, Bas Van (EDT), ISBN 1843763303, ISBN-13 9781843763307, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Rather than viewing sustainable consumption as a matter of personal choice or changing lifestyles, the environmental and social scientists contributing here emphasize how routine practices and consumption choices are mediated through the social institutions and technical infrastructures through which services are provided. Covering consumption, lifestyle, and choice; scales of provision and intermediaries; and infrastructural changes and inflexibility, they discuss such aspects as the limited autonomy of the consumer, shifting scales of infrastructure provision, and transport infrastructures as a social-spatial-temporal model. The ten papers are from a 2000 work in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
