Abstract: Through a literature review, this communication presents relationships between consumers, sustainable development and ecodesign. This synthesis reveals definitional difficulties and limits inherent to sustainable development and ecodesign and thus raise the need to rethink these notions. The consumer's expectations and his involvement in collaborative economy approaches illustrate his growing concern for sustainable development. However, the role of the consumer in the appropriate use of ecodesigned products and services does not seem to benefit from the needed consideration during the design phase, thereby generating rebound effects that may annihilate potential environmental gains achieved.

Keywords: sustainable development; ecodesign; collaborative economy; rebound effects; consumers; consommateurs; développement durable; écoconception; économie collaborative; effets rebonds (search for similar items in EconPapers)
