This topic is a highly debated one because of its
relevance in modern societies. Nevertheless, shopping, or better said, the
activity of changing things between people in order to preserve a complex
social structure, is one of the oldest steps of human evolution.
From this perspective, someone could think that
shopping centres are only a way to keep this ancestral method of improving our
lives. So, on the one hand, it’s a truth that they have helped us and have made
our daily routine easier, not only to buy essential things but also to meet
with friends and have fun or buy gifts and whims.
But, on the other hand, they have made many people
lost their heads. Sometimes you could end obsessed by buying things and losing
big quantities of money motivated by this capitalist society. And also, this
waste of useless products have contributed to the pollution of cities and the
shut down of many small shops, which are less prejudicial to the environment
and mental health.
In conclusion, shopping centres could be useful,
but in my opinion, one of them in each city is all we need, more than one is
only a way to get more money based on the marketing strategies of big brands.
