The theme of the conference is Making Sense of Consumption. As a multidisciplinary research centre CFK honors consumer research from a broad scope of disciplines ranging from the humanities and social sciences to technology. As a consequence, the aim of the conference is a truly transdisciplinary gathering of researchers around the how of consumption: How is consumption made sense of in various settings? How are consumption and consumers captured in an ever-changing, fluid world? What are the peak theories and methods today and for tomorrow? And what about the senses of the consumers themselves?
