"From the author of Into the Raging Sea comes a moving and eye-opening look at the story of manufacturing in America, whether it can ever successfully return to our shores, and why doing so is vital to our well-being as a nation, told through the experience of one young couple in Maine as they attempt to rebuild a lost industry, ethically. Ben and Whitney Waxman are two tireless idealists trying to do the impossible: make an American-made, union-made, all American-sourced sweatshirt. Ben spent a decade in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Wisconsin fighting for working men and women at a time when national support for unions had sunk to an all-time low. Paralyzed by depression and a drug addiction, Ben lands back in his hometown of Portland, Maine, forced to rebuild his life from scratch. There, he meets Whitney, a bartender wrestling with her own troubled past. In each other, they see a better future, a version of the American dream they can build together. The Waxman's quest will take us across the nation and across time, from the cotton fields of Mississippi to New York City's hollowed-out garment district to a family-owned zipper company in Los Angeles to the enormous knit-and-dye factories in North Carolina. Tracing the life of a hoodie from the cotton fields to the sewing machine to the convention floor. It will also take us through the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and what this means for the future of American manufacturing. American Hoodie offers a fascinating take on global politics, trade, economics, ethics, and industrial history told through textiles. Woven through the Waxmans' story is the essential history of textiles and its critical role in shaping capitalism. It was the demand for cheap cloth that sparked the industrial revolution, and it was the brutality of the textile industry that first drove workers to organize. American Hoodie is a deeply personal account of how politics and economics shape all of us. Each touchpoint casts a rare, compassionate look at what came before, where we are now, and where we're going-through the people, places, and ecologies that produce the fabric of our lives"--

Fashion in Altermodern China examines key features of women's fashion within the cultural and political context of contemporary China. While global brands and styles heavily influence Chinese consumer trends, the Chinese fashion 'system' is formed of its own internal logics and emergent trends, too. Adopting the theoretical term 'altermodern', Feng Jie encourages us to view China in terms of its rapid modernization which presents its own rhythms and meanings, and argues persuasively that Chinese fashion can't be wholly understood in terms of a Western discourse of modernity, postmodernity and the global.Expanding our understanding of the fashion 'system', Fashion in Altermodern China takes on board new trends in global trade, new technologies, and the hybridity of designs and consumption of fashion. Through critical readings of Barthes, on the 'neutral', and Jullien, on 'blandness', both directly influenced by Asian philosophies, the author offers a new perspective on Chinese fashion, arguing that, while global-local contexts lead to identifiably postmodern and hybrid aesthetics, for women in contemporary China the flux and mix of available fashions is experienced in a more open neutral manner than scholars have previously described. Crucially, then, rather than position trends in China only in terms of 'hybridity' (which betrays a Western bias and a binary logic of host-recipient), there are more fluid ways in which we need to understand how women engage in fashion in China today.

As a child, Anna Wintour was a tomboy with no apparent interest in clothing but, seduced by the miniskirts and bob haircuts of swinging 1960s London, she grew into a fashion-obsessed teenager. Her father, the influential editor of the Evening Standard, loomed large in her life, and once he decided she should become editor in chief of Vogue, she never looked back.Impatient to start her career, she left high school and got a job at a fashionable boutique in London - an experience that would be the first of many defeats. Undeterred, she found work in the competitive world of magazines, eventually moving to New York. Before long, Anna's journey to Vogue became a battle to ascend, no matter who or what stood in her way. Once she was crowned editor in chief - in one of the stormiest transitions in fashion magazine history - she continued the fight to retain her enviable position, ultimately rising to dominate all of Conde Nast.Based on extensive interviews with Anna Wintour's closest friends and collaborators, including some of the biggest names in fashion, journalist Amy Odell has crafted the most revealing portrait of Wintour ever published. Weaving Anna's personal story into a larger narrative about the hierarchical dynamics of the fashion industry and the complex world of Conde Nast, Anna charts the relentless ambition of the woman who would become an icon.

Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Psychologie - Sozialpsychologie, Note: 1,7, Hochschule für angewandtes Management GmbH, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit soll herausgefunden werden, wie das Konsumentenverhalten der Generation Y, deren Zugehörige auch Millennials genannt werden, durch Greenwashing im Kosmetiksektor beeinflusst wird. Dazu wurde die folgende Forschungsfrage gestellt: Inwieweit beeinflusst Greenwashing bei kosmetischen Produkten das Konsumentenverhalten von Millennials? Die Anforderungen der Verbraucher an Anbieter werden durch eine zunehmende Sättigung des Angebotes immer höher. Vor allem in der Kosmetikbranche zeichnet sich der Trend zur Nachhaltigkeit ab, weshalb Anbieter dieser Branche vermehrt sogenanntes Greenwashing betreiben, um das Unternehmen selbst oder dessen Produkte für die Interessensgruppen nachhaltiger wirken zu lassen. Gesetzliche Regelungen gibt es hierfür bislang nicht. Vor allem die jüngeren Generationen in Deutschland gelten als besonders kritisch und umweltbewusst. Um die Forschungsfrage zu beantworten, wurde eine Online-Befragung durchgeführt, die sich an die in Deutschland lebenden Millennials richtete. Die Auswertung zeigte, dass Greenwashing negative Auswirkungen auf die Sicht der kritischen Millennials bezüglich Anbietern und das Vertrauen in deren Werbemaßnahmen und -versprechen hat. Auf dieser Grundlage ist es für Anbieter empfehlenswert, die Corporate Social Responsibility Strategie sowie die Marketingaktivitäten authentisch an den gesellschaftlichen Wandel und die damit verbundenen Megatrends anzupassen. Weitere Forschung könnte auf mögliche gesetzliche Neuerungen bezüglich Greenwashing-Aktivitäten und deren Umsetzbarkeit am deutschen und internationalen Markt eingehen.
