Book Synopsis Beyond Piggly Wiggly by : Lisa C. Tolbert
Download or read book Beyond Piggly Wiggly written by Lisa C. Tolbert and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patented in 1917, Piggly Wiggly was by far the most influential self-service store of the early twentieth century. Before 1940 it was the only self-service chain with a national distribution network, but it was neither the first nor the only version. Beyond Piggly Wiggly reveals the importance of Piggly Wiggly in the invention of self-service and goes beyond the history of a single firm to explore the role of small business entrepreneurs who invented the first self-service stores in a grassroots social process. During the 1920s and 1930s a minority of enterprising grocers experimented with a wide variety of (sometimes wacky) design ideas for automating shopping. They created specialized stores designed as enclosed retail systems that went far beyond open display techniques to construct unique physical and psychological advantages for automating salesmanship. Beyond Piggly Wiggly offers the first perspective on the national scale of experimentation and connects the southern Jim Crow origins of self- service to the national history of this mass retailing method. Empirical analysis of store arrangements demonstrates how small stores that have previously been overlooked or undervalued as quaint anomalies were integral to the creation of supermarkets. Ultimately, self-service was more than a business decision; it was a fundamentally new social practice.
Book Synopsis On The Origins of Self-Service by : Franck Cochoy
Download or read book On The Origins of Self-Service written by Franck Cochoy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most marketing scholars implicitly consider independent merchants as conservative and passive actors, and study the modernization of retailing via department stores, chains and supermarkets. In this innovative study, Franck Cochoy challenges this perspective and takes a close look at the transformation of commerce through the lens of Progressive Grocer, an American trade magazine launched in 1922. Aimed at modernizing small independent grocery stores, Progressive Grocer sowed the seeds for modern self-service which spread in small retail outlets, sometimes well before the advent of the large retail spaces which are traditionally viewed as the origin of the self-service economy. The author illustrates how this publication had a highly influential role on what the trade considered to be best practice and shaped what was considered to be cutting edge. By displacing the consumer and their agency from the centre of analytic attention, this innovative book highlights the complex impact of social, technical and retailing environment factors that structure and delimit consumer freedom in the marketplace. This detailed critical analysis of the origins of self-service will be of interest to a wide variety of scholars not only in marketing and consumer research, but also in business history, sociology and cultural studies.

Book Synopsis Technologies of Consumer Labor by : Michael Palm
Download or read book Technologies of Consumer Labor written by Michael Palm and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents and examines the history of technology used by consumers to serve oneself. The telephone’s development as a self-service technology functions as the narrative spine, beginning with the advent of rotary dialing eliminating most operator services and transforming every local connection into an instance of self-service. Today, nearly a century later, consumers manipulate 0-9 keypads on a plethora of digital machines. Throughout the book Palm employs a combination of historical, political-economic and cultural analysis to describe how the telephone keypad was absorbed into business models across media, retail and financial industries, as the interface on everyday machines including the ATM, cell phone and debit card reader. He argues that the naturalization of self-service telephony shaped consumers’ attitudes and expectations about digital technology.

Download or read book Self-Service Food Stores (Classic Reprint) written by Carl W. Dipman and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Self-Service Food Stores This book was written in response to a persistent demand from food merchants all over the country for up-to-date information on the application of self-service to food retailing. The great majority of food merchants are planning extensive improvements for their stores. Many already operate self-service stores, but realize that significant changes in self-service techniques have been made in the past few years. This has been particularly true in the perishable lines of meats, produce, and dairy products. New lines of products, not formerly sold in food stores, have been successfully added on a self-service basis. We believe that this book will bring food merchants the latest and most practical information available on these subjects. Other merchants operate counter-service and semi-self-service stores and plan to convert to 100% self-service. They, too, will find sound guidance on how to convert to self-service and thus enjoy greater efficiency and profits. In writing this book, the authors have also kept in mind those who are planning to enter the retail food business for the first time. Every chapter contains practical information that will be of direct value to those without previous experience in retail food store operation. The retail food business is constantly in a state of change, but because of its gigantic proportions, many of these changes for the better do not come to the attention of the individual merchant who must stay close to his job. "Self-Service Food Stores" is really a research service of national scope that gives you complete information on these important developments.

Download or read book The Limits of Performativity written by Franck Cochoy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economy is commonly described either as the apolitical realm of calculation or as the fully political one of domination. This book scrutinizes the ways in which the economy is performed, in order to situate where precisely politics is located with regard to economic matters. Politics, the book demonstrates, thus appears at the turning point, in the place where the efficiency of economics is negotiated and where the need to forward it, reshape it, and complement it emerges. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Cultural Economy.

Book Synopsis Imagining Britain’s Economic Future, c.1800–1975 by : David Thackeray
Download or read book Imagining Britain’s Economic Future, c.1800–1975 written by David Thackeray and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-04 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Brexit vote, this book offers a timely historical assessment of the different ways that Britain’s economic future has been imagined and how British ideas have influenced global debates about market relationships over the past two centuries. The 2016 EU referendum hinged to a substantial degree on how competing visions of the UK should engage with foreign markets, which in turn were shaped by competing understandings of Britain’s economic past. The book considers the following inter-related questions: - What roles does economic imagination play in shaping people’s behaviour and how far can insights from behavioural economics be applied to historical issues of market selection? - How useful is the concept of the ‘official mind’ for explaining the development of market relationships? - What has been the relationship between expanding communications and the development of markets? - How and why have certain regions or groupings (e.g. the Commonwealth) been ‘unimagined’- losing their status as promising markets for the future?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: production for family consumption and for the wider market. While the importance of women's domestic labor has been generally recognized, the complex articulation between household activities and the changing nature of the economy has rarely been examined in greater depth than in this volume. The authors explore, theoretically and empirically, the relationships between household labor, wage levels, markets, economic change, and the status of women in the context of both first and third world countries. In the process, narrowly-defined debates are expanded, suggesting ways in which our understanding of domestic activities is relevant to studies of petty commodity production and vice versa.
