Pers / media: Vakinhoudelijk commentaar

Omschrijving

Article for the Belgian (Flemish) newspaper De Standaard. The frantic shopping behaviour in lock-down times shows how consumption has become our main religious ritual, just as much as the pelgrimage to Mekka is to Muslims, but in our case in a downright fundamentalist fashion.
