Consumer society is a society of self-delusion. A society that pursues a meaningless and unconscious illusion of happiness. A society in which the very necessity of consumption has long since become an irrational end in itself, where the "beauty industry" has equated the female body with a "commodity," and where the "philosophy of success" devalues human individuality.
Jean Baudrillard's 1970 work literally exploded the worldview of young intellectuals around the world. The absolute truth of this book is daily demonstrated by the very life of modern civilized countries—with its downshifting and "conscious consumption," rejection of the "cult of luxury," return to immaterial values, the rise of feminism, and even the slow death of the "haute couture" and "beauty industries."
