Freeing Oneself (Or Not) From Constraining Social Structures to Progress in Anti-Consumption: an Analysis Through Symbolic Interactionism
The aim of this paper is to understand the extent to which individuals manage constraining social structures in anti-consumption. Drawing on symbolic interactionism, the results show the meaning of the relationship with others through four relational strategies that involve communication through practices and/or discourses (hiding; camouflage; awareness; self-assertion) influencing identity.
