Rezensionen
"Globalizing Responsibility: The Political Rationalities of Ethical Consumption presents an innovative reinterpretation of the forces that have shaped the remarkable growth of ethical consumption."
"Based on original research and innovative thinking, this profound and insightful book challenges conventional thinking about 'ethical consumption.' Approaching the subject as a distinctive form of political mobilisation, Globalizing Responsibility shows how our everyday consumption practices are related to wider narratives of social justice and collective responsibility."
--Peter Jackson, University of Sheffield
"By viewing ethical consumption patterns as a political phenomenon, the authors deliver a far deeper understanding of this growing movement than a whole raft of marketing and business literature which has gone before."
--Rob Harrison, Ethical Consumer Magazine
