| Abstract: | This study applies and develops ideas taken from institutional and social economics to understand the consumption of a symbolic good such as pop music. by consuming pop music people want to express who they are, to which group they belong and what their identity is. People's identity is not strictly individual, but highly social and draws from on the socio-cultural values in society. |
