This
paper discusses Harry Braverman's
thesis in which he argues that capitalism has transformed 'all of society into a gigantic
marketplace', subordinating 'the totality of individual, family and social needs' to the market. Further, the
paper explains the implications of Moisio et al's research, "Between Mothers and Markets" regarding homemade food for Braverman's
thesis. The paper examines these findings by interviewing and observing members of three generations. For this observation the writer conducted interviews with his grandmother and mother and presents his own opinions as a representative of the younger generation.
