Abstract This paper aims to investigate the mechanisms that articulate the phenomenon of consumption to the search for power and political activities on issues related to the symbolic character of goods, particular forms of commerce and new ways of sociability in shopping spaces. The work analyzes three historical experiences emblematic of the relationship between consumption and politics. The first deals with the court societies of Elizabeth I in England and Louis XIV in France; the second is the boycott known as Boston Tea Party during the American Revolution; the third examines the connection between department stores and the suffragist movement in the fight for women's rights in the early twentieth century. Therefore, this paper shows how some representations and practices of consumption take shape as arenas for political expression in the modern world. Downloads Download data is not yet available.
