The modernity he marvels over is the new availability of cheap and useful goods. Steven Bunker's study shows how goods and consumption embodied modernity in the time of Porfirio Díaz, how they provided proof to Mexicans that "incredible things are happening in this world." In urban areas, and especially Mexico City, being a consumer increasingly defined what it meant to be Mexican. In an effort to reconstruct everyday life in Porfirian Mexico, Bunker surveys the institutions and discourses of consumption and explores how individuals and groups used the goods, practices, and spaces of urban consumer culture to construct meaning and identities in the rapidly evolving social and physical landscape of the capital city and beyond. Through case studies of tobacco marketing, department stores, advertising, shoplifting, and a famous jewelry robbery and homicide, he provides a colorful walking tour of daily life in Porfirian Mexico City. Emphasizing the widespread participation in this consumer culture, Bunker's work overturns conventional wisdom that only the middle and upper classes participated in this culture."--Provided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Díaz, Porfirio,|d1830-1915.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n50002554 600 14 Diaz, Porfirio,|d1830-1915. 600 17 Díaz, Porfirio,|d1830-1915.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/563 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1867-1910|2fast 648 7 1867-1999|2fast 650 0 Consumers|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85031491|zMexico|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n81013960-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Consumption (Economics)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85031498|zMexico|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n81013960-781|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 7 Consumers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/876410 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Consumption (Economics)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/876455 650 7 Commerce.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/869279 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 651 0 Mexico|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81013960 |xCommerce|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001412|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 651 0 Mexico|xSocial conditions|y20th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh92006440 651 0 Mexico|xHistory|y1867-1910.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85084588 651 7 Mexico.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1211700 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBunker, Steven B., 1970-|tCreating Mexican consumer culture in the age of Porfirio Díaz. |dAlbuquerque : University of New Mexico Press, ©2012 |z9780826344540|w(DLC) 2012028934|w(OCoLC)794366613 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=508780|zOnline eBook.
