Synopsis

Since the advent of e-commerce, consumerism has evolved exponentially. In 2013, online retailing in Europe grew to £111.2 billion with online retail sales via mobile devices expected to grow to £7.62 billion. The high street, however, is suffering, with 27% of stores in the UK sitting vacant in January 2014. This book explores the development of e-commerce and the future of shopping. It also examines your rights as a consumer and considers the role of ethical consumerism in today s society. The information inside comes from a variety of sources, including newspapers, magazines, government reports and charity groups; providing different perspectives on challenging topics. At the end of the book is a selection of activities that will encourage interaction, literacy, critical thinking and independent research. Content is accessible and engaging, tailored primarily towards the 14 to 18 age group.
