So, this is supposed to be a section of my paper.
1. My thesis is to use household appliance consumption (using refrigerators and washing machines (time-saving) and TV (time-using) as indicators to determine the formation of consumerism and consumer society in 20th Britain, with a particular focus on the period of 1940~1980.
2. This is a research task rather than a writing task. Hence the task here is to find ample sources, particularly primary sources. I presume it would demand expertise in both history and economics (probably more for the latter), and more importantly, access to UK research databases, libraries, and journals. I am here cuz I don’t have access to many of them.
3. I will need you to gather the following data and info, and conduct an analysis on it.
b. Demand-side info: mkt penetration rate, % in the electrified household (preferably with regional & social class category), price, sales quantity (best with different brands & corps) etc.
e. real & nominal electricity price trend over time, 1938=100, cross-examine with real wage growth. I have some data in my possession, we can talk, but still, plz try your best to find more for me.
