Items related to McDonaldization: The Reader
Synopsis
This fascinating anthology collects together a wide range of writings on the application of McDonaldization to areas of the social world, including: the church, state, theme parks, mountain climbing, the sex industry, the family, the police, the university, and the Internet.
The Reader also demonstrates the ways in which McDonaldization is affecting cultures around the world, the ways in which it does or does not adapt to other cultures, and various social movements that have emerged around the world in opposition to McDonaldization. The collection benefits from a new essay by George Ritzer on the future of McDonaldization.
