New Perspectives in Critical Marketing and Consumer Society
Author: Elaine Ritch
Publisher: Ethics International Press
ISBN: 1804418250
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
This book adopts a unique perspective in critically evaluating new perspectives of marketing that fall within ethical constructs, including EDI (equality, diversity and inclusivity), gendered implications and perspectives, sustainability (people and planet) and intersections with consumer culture. Marketing is often criticised as being commercially focused – profit over people. This book suggest that marketers could and should include consideration for progressive societal discourse and provides examples of how this can be conceptualised within current markets by using contemporary marketing examples and insights from consumer society. This edited collection of chapters addresses topical events, from the Met Gala to the FIFA World Cup, as well as examining the music, fashion and media industries, to reflect upon the way in which societal ideologies and discourse are evolving. It offers a new, contemporary lens through which marketing can be understood within consumer society. The book will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate business and marketing students; academics seeking to develop the curriculum, lecture content, and assessment design; and marketers/practitioners who want to engage with topical marketing discourse. It provides a glimpse into the future of markets and marketing.

ISBN: 1799818616
Category : Business & Economics

Book Description
Numerous clothing industries face highly dynamic environments, and growth in this environment depends upon both external and internal factors. External factors are represented by aggressive competition and volatile product demand.

Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as consumer relationships, cultural identity, and organizational culture, this book is ideally designed for researchers, academicians, professionals, and students working in various disciplines including management, industrial organization, organizational behavior, human resource management, decision science, design science, and information and communication. Moreover, the book will provide insights and support executives and managers of the textile and apparel industry concerned with the ethic design, contamination, and the management relationships with workers, customers, suppliers, the community, and organizational development.

Hedonism, Utilitarianism, and Consumer Behavior
Author: Daniele Scarpi
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030438767
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
This book investigates the effects of utilitarian and hedonic shopping behavior, drawing on original empirical research. Consumers have been shown to shop in one of two ways: they are either mainly driven by fun, escapism, and variety, or by need and efficiency. While previous literature has focused on the drivers of hedonic or utilitarian shopping, this book explores the consequences of these styles of shopping and addresses their impact on perceived value, money spent, and willingness to return to the store in future. The author synthesizes theories from previous studies, applying them to two key retailing contexts – intensive distribution and selective distribution. Ultimately, this book highlights the need for retailers to adopt a more consumer-based perspective to improve shopping experiences. It will prove useful for academics who want to gain a better understanding of hedonic and utilitarian behavior, and also offers practitioners with useful insights on how to target different customer segments.
