    摘要、提要註: In eleven original chapters, the contributors to Lived Experiences of Public Consumption takethe experiences, practices and embodiments ofeveryday actors in public marketplaces as their pointsof departure. Drawing upon their ethnographic research, the authors situate themselvesand their work in commercial marketplaces-on the streets and in the plazas, grocery stores and malls of five continents-offering the kind of rich description and analysis enabled by interpretive forms of inquiry.In so doing, they demonstrate a shared conviction that something irreducible occurs in the public, face-to-face encounters of buyers and sellers, of observers and participants, as they meet in the terrestrial marketplace-be it a bookstore in Sydney, a mall in Dubai, a fair trade shop in Philadelphia ora flea market in Santiago, Chile. Throughout the book the point is made with intimate detail that, in market-commercial contexts, economic value never stands alone but is always accompanied byand enfolded into exquisite human specificity.
