Production, Consumption, ProsumptionJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 10 Số 1 - Trang 13-36 - 2010
George Ritzer, Nathan Jurgenson
This article deals with the rise of prosumer capitalism. Prosumption involves
both production and consumption rather than focusing on either one (production)
or the other (consumption). It is maintained that earlier forms of capitalism
(producer and consumer capitalism) were themselves characterized by prosumption.

Mass imagineering, mass customization and mass production: Complementary cultures for creativity, choice and convenienceJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 19 Số 1 - Trang 67-81 - 2019
Stephen Fox
Do-it-yourself trends, such as self-broadcasting, music self-publishing and
personal manufacturing, involve combining human imagination and automated
engineering. In particular, automated engineering enabled by artificial
intelligence algorithms is used for pattern recognition and other highly complex
tasks across physical, virtual and social media. Together, multiple
do-it-yourself trends driven ... hiện toàn bộ
Practice-ing behaviour change: Applying social practice theory to pro-environmental behaviour changeJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 79-99 - 2011
Tom Hargreaves
This article applies the insights of social practice theory to the study of
proenvironmental behaviour change through an ethnographic case study (nine
months of participant observation and 38 semi-structured interviews) of a
behaviour change initiative — Environment Champions — that occurred in a
workplace. In contrast to conventional, individualistic and rationalist
approaches to behaviour change... hiện toàn bộ
Understanding change and continuity in residential energy consumptionJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 61-78 - 2011
Kirsten Gram‐Hanssen
Practice theory has recently emerged within consumer studies as a promising
approach that shifts focus from the individual consumer towards the collective
aspects of consumption, and from spectacular and conspicuous dimensions of
consumption towards routine and mundane aspects of consumption. Practice theory
is, however, not a commonly agreed upon theory, but more like an approach, or a
turn withi... hiện toàn bộ
Product, Competence, Project and PracticeJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 8 Số 1 - Trang 69-89 - 2008
Matt Watson, Elizabeth Shove
Studies of ordinary (as distinct from spectacular) forms of consumption have
generated new questions and new ways of thinking about mechanisms and processes
of change and about the conceptual status of consumer goods. No longer
exclusively framed as semiotic resources deployed in the expression and
reproduction of identities and social relations, products are increasingly
viewed as essential ingre... hiện toàn bộ
Consumption and Theories of PracticeJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 5 Số 2 - Trang 131-153 - 2005
Alan Warde
This article considers the potential of a revival of interest in theories of
practice for the study of consumption. It presents an abridged account of the
basic precepts of a theory of practice and extracts some broad principles for
its application to the analysis of final consumption. The basic assumption is
that consumption occurs as items are appropriated in the course of engaging in
particular... hiện toàn bộ
After taste: Culture, consumption and theories of practiceJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 14 Số 3 - Trang 279-303 - 2014
Alan Warde
Multi-disciplinary studies of consumption have proliferated in the last two
decades. Heavily influenced by notions of ‘the consumer’ and tenets of ‘the
cultural turn’, explanations have relied preponderantly upon models of voluntary
action contextualised by webs of cultural meanings which constitute symbolic
resources for individual choice. Arguably, the cultural turn has run its course
and is beg... hiện toàn bộ
When materiality ‘bites back’: Digital music consumption practices in the age of dematerializationJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 15-36 - 2011
Paolo Magaudda
Dematerialization of artefacts and material objects is a relevant issue in
consumer studies, especially when we consider the ongoing changes regarding the
consumption of cultural goods. This article adopts a theory-of-practice approach
to analyse the consequences of dematerialization on the practices of digital
music consumption. From an empirical point of view, the article is based on data
collec... hiện toàn bộ
Consumers, Producers and PracticesJournal of Consumer Culture - Tập 5 Số 1 - Trang 43-64 - 2005

The idea that artifacts are acquired and used in the course of accomplishing
social practices has important implications for theories of consumption and
innovation. From this point of view, it is not enough to show that goods are
symbolically and materially positioned, mediated and filtered through existing
cultures and conventions. Twisting the problem around, the further challenge is
to explain ... hiện toàn bộ
