The theme of the 2017 Consumer Culture Theory conference was hyper-reality and cultural hybridization, so organizers held it at Disneyland in southern California. The 11 selected papers here consider such aspects as amazing information: hyper-reality and the World of the Wicked, managing media as parental race-work: (re)mediating children's black identities, spatializing purity and pollution: stigma and consumption of beef in India, [softly assembled] gender performance through products: four practices responding to masculine and feminine codes in product design, and anticipating the automobile: transportation transformations in Vietnam.
