This revised version of Kaela Jubas' award winning dissertation focuses on contemporary shopping practices, analyzing the ways concerned shoppers think about globalization, consumption, and their personal effect on the status quo. By using numerous examples from modern advertising, interviews with self-described "radical" shoppers, and selected quotes from scholars and experts, Jubas delves into questions of social justice, environmental awareness, and consumer identity -- all demonstrated by individual choices made at the checkout counter. Employing a variety of qualitative research techniques and complex and counterintiuitive cultural theory, Jubas's study will interest those in adult education, cultural studies, consumer research, and qualitative inquiry.

Kaela Jubas is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Education at the University of Calgary, specializing in adult learning. She earned her has a Ph.D. in educational studies from the University of British Columbia in 2009.
