Educating the Consumer-citizen

Description

Industrialism is the predominant American belief system of the 21st century.”Shop until you drop” is the clarion call of our age. The victory of consumerism was made conceivable by the related activities of schools, promoting, and media. This book shows the historical backdrop of that joint undertaking to make the consumerist belief system and guarantee its focal spot in American life. Like any history, this story is certainly not a straight line from one timespan to another.
