DESCRIPTION

In most contemporary societies, socio-environmental sustainability has become a central topic of discussion over the past few decades. The impact of carbon emissions, consumption of non-renewable water and energy, the loss of biodiversity, or the need for residue reduction and recycling - among many other issues - have become the object of international agreements, public policies, business initiatives, media reportage, action by social movements, and heated academic debate. Today, there seems to be some consensus over the fact that, even with dramatic changes in public policies, production technologies, and energy sources, these environmental impacts will, to a large extent, continue.

This is mainly because such impact is also produced in the domestic sphere, that is, in how natural resources and the planet's energy are used by a "global consuming class" of 1.7 billion people spread over all continents. What this means is that, more than ever, sustainability needs to be discussed with the final consumer as a starting point. Sustainable living is the concept that summarizes the relationship between quotidian consumption practices and sustainability. On the one hand, this concept encourages us to rethink the very relationship between consumption and production. On the other, the task of redefining and changing social practices is more complex than what media campaigns and public policies would lead one to believe. After all, practices are constituted through sayings and doings that develop and are then reassembled and dismembered into other practices; each of which implies new forms of consumption.

The 6th National (and 2nd Portuguese-Brazilian) Meeting on Consumption Studies seeks to discuss, both theoretically and methodologically, the concept of sustainable living, and to analyze, sociologically, the social practices and lifestyles that make up contemporary living. As such, we are interested in theoretical and empirical papers covering topics such as domestic practices; water and energy consumption; urban mobility, transport and logistics; the use of ecological technologies in the domestic sphere; particular modes of living; or new ways of articulating production and consumption. At the same time, we also welcome papers engaging in discussions over symbolic and practical conceptualizations of what it means to "live sustainably" in contemporary societies.
