Analyzing the consumer movement from sociological, economic, and political perspectives, Mayer argues that American consumer activists have successfully shaped public policy despite formidable obstacles. He details the history of consumer activism in the United States, looks at significant leaders, and examines the key components of the present movement. He measures its successes and failures, compares it with movements in other countries, shows how shrewd political maneuvering has combined with fortuitous circumstances to bring about legislation in the interest of consumers, and foresees the problems and issues that will spark the next wave of consumerism.

This book is the most comprehensive and up-to-date source of information about ways in which consumer activism has reshaped the economic and political well-being of citizens in the United States and around the world. This all-encompassing collection of information about consumer activism and the consumer movement will provide students, public officials, business groups, and other activists with a one-stop source of facts and insights. The contributors explore hundreds of major consumer protections that have significantly enhanced the quality of life and safety for all Americans, showing how these protections were won through the skillful and determined work of leading activists and activist organizations. Many of the stories told here are related by the activists themselves, often for the first time. More than 140 entries offer a comprehensive treatment of the consumer activism of specific organizations, their leaders, and strategies. The book also includes more than 40 entries about consumer movements in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. A timeline of key events and a listing of the most important books on the subject of consumer activism help provide context for the individual entries as do two introductory essays. Cross references in each entry establish linkages among topics.
