From the Sociology of Shopping department:
Eastern Connecticut State University has this odd little corner of their website dedicated to comparing and contrasting shopping malls around the world. There is even a section that lists fiction that uses a shopping mall as a primary setting.
This is an odd little site, but one I can’t help but find interesting. There is nothing about the ways shopping malls are set up to comfort the shopper, causing them to lose track of time and shop more. This is just a bare bones fact site of one of the oddest pieces of American social life.
