Sustainable Consumption Institute

This volume arises from a Symposium ‘Social sciences and sustainable consumption’ held in April 2011 at the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies.1 The Helsinki Symposium built, in turn, upon a series of seminars, ‘Alternative approaches to sustainable consumption’, held at the Sustainable Consumption Institute2 of the University of Manchester in 2008. At the core of these events was a concern to understand the consequences of habitual behaviour for the sustainability of contemporary patterns of consumption.
