Abstract

This study explores how macro-level identity myths such as the ‘model minority’, manifest, and influence the lived experiences of ‘privileged’ ethnic migrant consumers such as professional British Indian women. It challenges our accepted norms of ‘dominant’ and ‘dominated’ consumers, and shows the transformation of ethnicity across migrant generations.
