Consumerism

Social development or social delimitation?

John Harris

School of Health and Social Studies, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK, j.harris{at}warwick.ac.uk

However, consumerism has the potential to promote procedural rights, to be responsive to individual needs and to treat service users as rational agents.
