Samenvatting
This book examines the relationships between society and material culture: the interaction between people and things. Tim Dant argues that the traditional approach to material culture has focused on the symbolic meanings of objects, largely overlooking the material impact that objects have on everyday life in late modernity.
This book examines the relationships between society andmaterial culture: the interaction between people and things.Tim Dant argues that the traditional approach to materialculture has focused on the symbolic meanings of objects,largely overlooking the material impact that objects have oneveryday life in late modernity. Dant resists the now well-establishedmodel of consumption as the principal relationshipwith ‘things’ in our lives. Using the motor car as a recurringtheme, he shows how we confront our society through materialinteraction with the objects that surround us.
