Packaging life cultures of the everyday
Packaging Life: Cultures of the Everyday is a study of the cultural politics of four aspects of everyday life--health, comfort, risk and mobility--as manifest in public culture. The book explores the commodification of these aspects, arguing that our experience and perception of these are mediated by discourses circulating in the mass media. The author explores how notions of 'good' health, 'cosmopolitan' identities, and 'luxurious' lifestyles are constructed, arguing that such constructions, or what this book calls 'packaging', encourage us to buy particular commodities, adopt certain lifestyle.
