Descrição: Anti‐consumerism is a diverse field of social analysis and global political action that critiques and opposes excessive levels of consumption, especially the consumer excess characteristic of affluent economies. This critique focuses on both the environmental and cultural ramifications of an increasing consumerization of life, warns of the global reach and consequences of an unconstrained consumer marketplace, and is closely aligned with advocacy of ethical forms of exchange and sustainable lifestyles. While consumerism has long been challenged by critics worldwide, Western nations in particular have since the 1990s been the site of a vigorous renaissance of anti‐consumerist debate and action.
