Barnes and Noble Book Store

Reluctant Capitalists

Over the past half-century, bookselling, like many retail industries, has evolved from an arena dominated by independent bookstores to one in which chain stores have significant market share. And as in other areas of retail, this transformation has often been a less-than-smooth process. This has been especially pronounced in bookselling, argues Laura J. Miller, because more than most other consumer goods, books are the focus of passionate debate. What drives that debate? And why do so many people believe that bookselling should be immune to questions of profit?In RELUCTANT CAPITALISTS, Miller looks at a century of book retailing, demonstrating that the independent/chain dynamic is not entirely new. It began one hundred years ago when department stores began selling books, continued through the 1960s with the emergence of national chain stores, barnes and noble book store and exploded with the formation of superstores in the 1990s. The advent of the Internet has further spurred tremendous changes in how booksellers approach their business. All of these changes have met resistance from book professionals barnes and noble book store and readers who believe that the book business should somehow be above market forces barnes and noble book store and instead embrace more noble priorities.Miller uses interviews with bookstore customers barnes and noble book store and members of the book industry to explain why books evoke such distinct barnes and noble book store and heated reactions. She reveals why customers have such fierce loyalty to certain bookstores barnes and noble book store and why they identify so strongly with different types of books. In the process, she also teases out the meanings of retailing barnes and noble book store and consumption in American culture at large, underscoring her point that any type of consumer behavior is inevitably political, with consequences for communities as well as commercial institutions.
