| Summary: | The aim of the article is to characterize the most common tendencies that occur in consumption
in contemporary society, which is part of the research area of consumption sociology. The
considerations taken up in the article focus on the problem of changes taking place in the sphere
of consumption and their consequences relating to the socio-economic order. The method
of reviewing domestic and foreign scientific publications related to research topics was used
by explaining, among others, such concepts as: consumerism, prosumption, ecologisation
of consumption, democratization of consumption, virtualization of consumption, ethical
consumption. It allowed to indicate the direction of changes taking place in contemporary
consumption under the influence of, e.g., such social processes and phenomena as: globalization,
technological progress, or civilization changes. The scale and impact of these trends depend on
the economic, social, technological and cultural environment of society |
