商品簡介
In the digital age, social media transforms the way people communicate, form relationships, and succeed. While these platforms offer opportunities for connection, they also promote a culture of materialism by constantly displaying wealth, luxury lifestyles, and consumer trends. As users compare themselves to carefully curated online images, the pursuit of possessions and social status can begin to overshadow genuine human interaction and emotional well-being. This growing tension between materialistic values and authentic relationships raises important questions about how social media shapes human connections and whether technology brings people closer together or drives them further apart. Materialism, Social Media, and Human Connection in the Digital Age examines how social media platforms and digital consumer culture transform modern human behavior, emotional relationships, and family dynamics. It explores the growing influence of materialism, online validation, influencer culture, and economic status on interpersonal connections and perceptions of love, success, and identity. This book covers topics such as digital media, philosophy, and consumer behavior, and is a useful resource for media and communications professionals, business owners, psychologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
