What is Consumerism
The term “consumerism” refers to a social and economic system in which the aspirations of many persons involve the acquisition of commodities and services that go beyond those that are required for survival or for the customary displays of status. The concept of consumerism has been present in a variety of societies throughout history. The contemporary concept of consumerism can be traced back to Western Europe before to the Industrial Revolution and began to gain popular acceptance around the year 1900. The Theory of the Leisure Class was a book written by Thorstein Veblen that was published in 1899. It was a book about consumerism that investigated the broad ideals and economic institutions that emerged along with the prevalent “leisure time” at the beginning of the 20th century. “Veblen views the activities and spending habits of this leisure class in terms of conspicuous and vicarious consumption and waste,” he writes in the book. Not to be confused with utility or usefulness, both are concerned with the presentation of one's status.
