Tiivistelmä: | Everyday shopping practices are increasingly marketed as opportunities to "make a difference" via our ethical consumption choices. This study examines how "ethical" opportunities such as the consumption of Fairtrade products are recognized , experienced and taken-up in the everyday. In this article, the "everyday" is approached via a specially commissioned Mass Observation directive, a volunteer panel of correspondents in the UK. It is argued that situating ethical consumption, moral obligation and choice in the everyday is important in order to avoid over-exaggerating the reflexive and self-conscious sensibilities involved in ethical consumption. |
