A comprehensive reference for the consumer movement, this book sets information covering subjects like movement-related institutions in a historical framework. Leaders, activities, and impacts are covered, with particular attention given to the laws and regulations intended to protect consumers. The alphabetically-arranged entries range from 1000 to 5000 words in length, and relate to one of seven topics: general, consumer populations, consumer activities, consumer organizations, consumer leaders, product protections, and consumer movements. Most of the entries focus on the USA, as the consumer movement in that country has been larger than and more active than anywhere else.
Stephen Brobeck, PhD, is executive director of the Consumer Federation of America in Washington, D.C.
