The Consumer Republic - Breathing Space Blog

A Consumers' Republic: The Politics of Mass Consumption in Postwar America,
by Lizabeth Cohen (Knopf). Dr. Cohen is a professor of American studies who asks

* How have the economic, political, social, and cultural structures engendered by mass consumption changed your life?
