'Consumed' offers a wrenching portrait of how adult consumers are infantilized in a global economy that overproduces goods and targets children as consumers in a market where there are never enough shoppers. With brilliance and depth, Benjamin R Barber confronts the likely consequences for our children, our liberty and our citizenship, and shows finally how citizens can resist and transcend the civic schizophrenia with which consumerism has infected them.
