The Citizenist-Consumer: When the Literate Citizen Rescue the Deemed Irresponsible Consumer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 287

An ethnographic insight of Spanish post-housing crisis social movements reveals the emergence of an alternative construct of a citizen-consumer, as a collective identity and agency able to reverse the frame and cope with their vulnerability to abusive predatory lending.
