Description

On 8 and 9 September 2020, the online workshop ‘The Contested Consumer’ brought together academics from history, social and political sciences to discuss the topics of consumerism and consumer governance from an interdisciplinary perspective. The aim of the workshop was to overcome internal fragmentation with academics studying the institutional developments regarding consumer protection from a top-down perspective and scholars keen to understand the bottom-up development of consumer activism and consumer organisations. The workshop was organised by the project group ‘Consumers on the March’.
