Postmodernism views both production and consumption are problematized simultaneously,and the consumer should now be viewed as a producer,as well as a consumer,of symbols and meanings that are incorporated into the symbolic system,which all human activity has become.There are many faces of the consumer at different times during consumers’ live in the postmodernism perspective.
