消費文化是理解社會重要的角度，從人們如何消費商品、服務、資源，我們得以進一步掌握社會變遷如何影響日常生活。同時，我們也得以思考如何透過經濟的創新改變社會，消費市場是否是社會和政治行動的阻礙。這門課分為四個部分，第一部份檢視消費社會的特質和歷史，在不同的區域展現的不同樣貌。第二部份分析消費如何介入認同和品味，第三部分則討論消費和不平等、介紹消費作為一種社會控制的觀點。第四部分會介紹公民消費者和倫理消費等新興概念，依此思考台灣相關的現象與議題。 Consumer culture is an important perspective for understanding society. From how people consume goods, services, and resources, we can further understand how social changes affect daily life. At the same time, we can also think about how to transform society through economic innovation and whether the consumer market is a barrier to social and political actions. This course is divided into four parts. The first part examines the characteristics and history of the consumer society and shows different appearances in different regions. The second part analyzes how consumption intervenes in recognition and taste, and the third part discusses consumption and inequality and introduces consumption as a social control perspective. The fourth part will introduce new concepts such as citizen consumers and ethical consumption, and consider the phenomena and discussions related to Taiwan based on this.
