ublished in association with the German Historical Institute, Washington, DC. This series brings together historical research on consumption and consumerism in the modern era, especially the twentieth century, and with a particular focus on comparative and transnational studies. It aims to make research available in English from an increasingly internationalized and interdisciplinary field.

Worlds of Consumption highlights and explores these linkages, which deserve wide attention because they shape who we are as individuals and societies.
