America As Seen From France - A Follow Up On Consumerism

20 min•18 oktober 2025

Om avsnittet

A follow up to my lecture on America seen from France that explores in more detail some of the data behind American consumerism and how this translates into lived experience. In sum, while consumerism is a real issue everywhere, the comparisons between Europe and the US mask how utterly dedicated the US is to consumerism as a way of life.
