Abstract

A. Fuat Firat Consumption, Markets & Culture (CMC) has successfully completed its third year of publication. This is the final issue of the third volume. I believe that we have taken major strides toward our goal of becoming a forum of critical perspectives that integrate theoretical and conceptual discourse from multiple disciplines. Yet, there is more to achieve and develop. We want to further our original goals of becoming the locus of most innovative and challenging ideas, of becoming a forum where these proposed novel perspectives are discussed and debated, and of engaging an international body of scholars. No matter how sincere and hard working we are, these are not easy targets to reach. As I discussed in the introduction to the very first issue of CMC, many disciplinary and other hurdles exist that need to be overcome. We have, as you witnessed in the third issue of this volume, started an interview series, Conversations. Alladi Venkatesh, as the conductor of this series, has already completed several excellent discussions with some of the most exciting scholars /researchers from different countries and backgrounds.
