Resumo

El consumo ético es un área extensa de debate, por lo que en primer lugar procederá definir la base moral del denominado consumismo ético que nos permite comprender sus implicaciones tanto para los mercados como para las empresas. La importancia del tema radica no solo en la actualidad del mismo, sino también por la perspectiva del modelo que empleamos. En este caso, estaríamos apelando a la visión de un área específica, en concreto, el lujo en la industria de los azulejos, pues nos encontraríamos ante desigualdades sociales que aflorarían y que constituirían un serio obstáculo a la sostenible. El diseño empleado combina preguntas cualitativas y cuantitativas según variables específicas en un país concreto: España. Se hace hincapié así en las implicaciones para el contexto del lujo y la sostenibilidad, teniendo en cuenta la figura del homo economicus que se guía por su interés y no por el bien común.
