Dr Talia Hussain's research focus is critical shopping studies. That is, how the norms of consumption culture and routinised business practice of the marketplace interact to produce unsustainable outcomes, and what new market-making practices might produce different types of outcome. This transdisciplinary area of study encompasses design, economics, culture, history, degrowth, decolonisation, and critical theory. Dr Hussain aims to extend the field beyond existing critiques and solutions to propose new ways of thinking about fashion production, consumption and markets.
