"The Anthropologists" is an edited volume of nineteen essays, written by Brazilian academics, on the life and work of classic Anthropology authors from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Abstract: This article aims to show, in historical perspective, moments of close linkage between the political action of feminism and the modern consumer practices. The central focus will be the analysis of the emergence of the bicycle as a consumer good. Although it was thought for men, bicycle was-in the United States and in several European countries-appropriated by women, who quickly became its main consumers. The arrival of this good of consumption was related to the feminist struggles for emancipation, provoking a wave of social transformations.
