Consumerism

Since the advent of e-commerce, consumerism has evolved exponentially. In 2013, online retailing in Europe grew to £111.2 billion with online retail sales via mobile devices expected to grow to £7.62 billion. The high street, however, is suffering, with 27% of stores in the UK sitting vacant in January 2014. This book explores the development of e-commerce and the future of shopping. It also examines your rights as a consumer and considers the role of ethical consumerism in today's society.
