TY - JOUR AU - Mackoy, Robert AB - A framework is proposed for analyzing the consumption culture, including its micro/personal and macrolexternal covariates and critiques. Two main questions emerge: (1) Are goods assigned excess meaning, such that their pursuit distracts an individual from achieving true meaning in life? (2) Does the consumption culture destroy collective values and detract from issues in the public domain?
