Headword 1消費主義
Reading 1しょうひしゅぎ
Part-of-speechn
English 1consumerism
ReferenceI just made that term up while writing an essay and then checked the dictionaries, without result. Google, however, has 40,000 hits for the term (among which http://www.cm.hit-u.ac.jp/kyouiku/mcm/thesis/matsui1.html seems sufficient to back me up) and 440 hits for 消費主義者. (Google has also some 4000 hits for the term 消費者主義, which i find illogical, and subsequently 5 for 消費者主義者, but maybe this shows that this term is still in its genesis period). EIJIRO has one single bit of supporting evidence in the form of 反消費主義 (anticonsumerism).

Current Entryコンシューマリズム /(n) consumerism/ (1052150)
Headword 1コンシューマリズム
Part-of-speechn
English 1consumerism
CommentJust found that term in WWWJDIC and think it should be cross-referenced to the just submitted 消費主義. :-)

BTW, http://www.exbuzzwords.com/static/keyword_3378.html most peculiarly confuses "consumers' rights" with "consumerism", so i will do a bit more research, using the translators' mailing lists.

CommentI had second thoughts about that term after sending my submission, so i checked, and - lo and behold - another "false friend" was exposed. ;-)

(The previously suggested /requested cross-reference to 消費主義 is, of course, no longer advisable.) ;-)

Editorial Comment Not totally false in that "consumerism" in English has several senses. See http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/consumerism
I have also added an entry for 消費者主権 and xreffed to it.
