Céline Hay, « Modeling the socialization process for socially responsible consumption : a life stories approach », HALSHS : archive ouverte en Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société - notices sans texte intégral, ID : 10670/1.cb64b0...
Among the studies on socially responsible consumption, little attention has been paid to the child as a relevant target. This research falls in line with the willingness of the state actions that attempt to understand and modify non-responsible behavior in adults. By considering the interest of socialization from an early age, this research aims to understand the process of socialization of the child to socially responsible consumption via the biographical method of life stories. The results are based on the analyze of 19 socially responsible consumers, made up of 16 socially responsible consumers and 3 consumers do not find themselves in this way of consuming, autonomous and aging from 24 to 39 years old. This doctoral work aims to understand how the process of socialization can guide the child towards the role of socially responsible consumer. Specifically, we propose to model the process of socialization to socially responsible consumption by determining when, how and by whom the identified values and skills must be instilled to maximize the chances of seeing a child adopt these behaviours in adulthood. Specifically, this study seeks to highlight the mechanisms implemented throughout this socialization process to reconcile skills and knowledge they gained during childhood with the environment in which they operate.
