The project of writing a Global Positioning System (GPS) book was con­ ceived in April 1988 at a GPS meeting in Darmstadt, Germany. Dr. Remondi discussed with me the need for an additional GPS textbook and suggested a possible joint effort. In 1989, I was willing to commit myself to such a project. Unfortunately, the timing was less than ideal for Dr. Remondi. Therefore, I decided to start the project with other coauthors. Dr. Remondi agreed and indicated his willingness to be a reviewer. I selected Dr. Herbert Lichtenegger, my colleague from the Technical University Graz, Austria, and Dr. James Collins from Rockville, Maryland, U.S.A. In my opinion, the knowledge of the three authors should cover the wide spectrum of GPS. Dr. Lichtenegger is a geodesist with broad experience in both theory and practice. He has specialized his research to geodetic astron­ omy including orbital theory and geodynamical phenomena. Since 1986, Dr. Lichtenegger's main interest is dedicated to GPS. Dr. Collins retired from the U.S. National Geodetic Survey in 1980, where he was the Deputy Director. For the past ten years, he has been deeply involved in using GPS technology with an emphasis on surveying. Dr. Collins was the founder and president of Geo/Hydro Inc. My own background is theoretically oriented. My first chief, Prof. Dr. Peter Meissl, was an excellent theoretician; and my former chief, Prof. Dr.mult. Helmut Moritz, fortunately, still is. 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aGeographic information systems 606 $aGeotechnical engineering 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aGeographical Information System 606 $aGeotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences 615 0$aGeophysics. 615 0$aGeographic information systems. 615 0$aGeotechnical engineering. 615 14$aGeophysics. 615 24$aGeographical Information System. 615 24$aGeotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences. 676 $a550 676 $a526.1 700 $aHofmann-Wellenhof$b Bernhard$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0472692 702 $aLichtenegger$b Herbert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aCollins$b James$f1936-$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958628803321 996 $aGlobal Positioning System$94431967 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03846nam 22005655 450 001 9911034957103321 005 20251014130405.0 010 $a3-031-96645-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-96645-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32352806 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32352806 035 $a(CKB)41645660400041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-96645-3 035 $a(EXLCZ)9941645660400041 100 $a20251014d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aConsumer Society and the Economists $eConsumption and Well-Being in the History of Economic Thought /$fby Fernando Collantes 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (259 pages) 225 1 $aPalgrave Studies in the History of Economic Thought,$x2662-6586 311 08$a3-031-96644-9 327 $a1.

To what extent is consumer society a relevant object of analysis, after all? Today, these questions are central to the debate on the dynamics of capitalism and their impact on human well-being. Yet they are by no means exclusive to our time. This book traces the history of economic thought on consumer society from the late eighteenth century to the present day. It explores the ambivalence of classical political economists and Marx towards the world of consumption. It narrates the making of an intellectual battlefield between rival views of consumer society during the period 1870-1945 and the head-on clash that took place between those views during the decades after the Second World War. How these debates reemerged following the end of the Cold War and the Global Financial Crisis is also covered. This is the story of how economists debated consumer society and how that debate was shaped by another fundamental discussion: how economists should conduct their research and what kind of relationships they should maintain with other social sciences and the humanities. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought and political economy.
