Consumption research is burgeoning across a wide range of disciplines. The Routledge Handbook on Consumption gathers experts from around the world to provide a nuanced overview of the latest scholarship in this expanding field. At once ambitious and timely, the volume provides an ideal map for those looking to position their work, find new analytic insights and identify research gaps. With an intuitive thematic structure and resolutely international outlook, it engages with theory and methodology; markets and businesses; policies, politics and the state; and culture and everyday life. It will be essential reading for students and scholars across the social and economic sciences.

The short lifetime of digital technologies means that generational identities are difficult to establish around any particular technologies let alone around more far-reaching socio-technological ‘revolutions’. Examining the consumption and use of digital technologies throughout the stages of human development, this book provides a valuable overview of ICT usage and generational differences. It focuses on the fields of home, family and consumption as key arenas where these processes are being enacted, sometimes strengthening old distinctions, sometimes creating new ones, always embodying an inherent restlessness that affects all aspects and all stages of life. Combining a collection of international perspectives from a range of fields, including social gerontology, social policy, sociology, anthropology and gender studies, Digital Technologies and Generational Identity weaves empirical evidence with theoretical insights on the role of digital technologies across the life course. It takes a unique post-Mannheimian standpoint, arguing that each life stage can be defined by attitudes towards, and experiences of, digital technologies as these act as markers of generational differences and identity. It will be of particular value to academics of social policy and sociology with interests in the life course and human development as well as those studying media and communication, youth and childhood studies, and gerontology.

This pioneering book examines how young people’s agency in differing digital landscapes intersects with areas such as communication, economy, work and leisure. Terhi-Anna Wilska and Jussi Nyrhinen analyse the underlying factors upholding these dynamics and provide recommendations to enhance young people’s influence and competence in digital environments.The contributing authors explore how the role of social media affects the ways in which young people perceive information and news and communicate with family and peers. They investigate risks related to privacy, online gambling and gaming, virtual surveillance, algorithmic advertising and AI-based evaluations. The book uses a variety of research methods within multidisciplinary theoretical frameworks to present a cross-cultural approach focused on global issues including the COVID-19 pandemic and the rise of everyday Artificial Intelligence. It also illustrates how social media can empower young people by enabling active agency, increasing their financial wellbeing, improving their digital skills and extending their social networks. Young People in Digital Environments is a vital resource for students and scholars in digital and cultural sociology, science and technology and the sociology of youth and childhood. Timely and engaging, it is also beneficial to policymakers and practitioners in schools, NGOs and to leaders in digital businesses.
