"Performing an in-depth exploration of the gendered nature of marketing theory and practice, this timely book unpacks the many ideological assumptions embedded in marketing thought and action. Drawing on past and present scholarship at the intersection between marketing and feminism, Pauline Maclaran and Andreas Chatzidakis highlight the gendered silences in the history of marketing. By referencing core bodies of feminist theory and engaging with interdisciplinary perspectives on feminism and marketing, they illustrate a comprehensive understanding of the subtleties at work in the gendering of marketing. Structured around five key areas, the book examines the history of marketing thought, communications, product design and branding, marketing's free externalities, and the marketing organisation. Identifying the biases, misconceptions and prejudices perpetuated by gendered marketing, it concludes by questioning if and how marketing can be de-gendered, in order to empower and transform consumers. Tracking the evolution of feminist thought and its critique of market-related structures and activities, this book will prove invaluable to students and scholars of marketing, media studies, sociology and gender studies. With insights into industry practices, it will also prove a vital reference guide to practitioners and policymakers working in advertising, marketing and the media who are concerned with gender and feminism"--

This third edition of Contemporary Issues in Marketing and Consumer Behaviour has been revised and updated to reflect the fast-changing world we live in. The new state of the art chapter on digital marketing digs deeply into two new frontiers of marketing which have significant impact on contemporary social life: influencer marketing, and online gaming. Other new topics help us to understand how marketing can perpetuate local and global inequality through creating and sustaining hierarchies of knowledge and influencing norms of race, disability, gender and sexual orientation. Topics new to this edition include: Digital Markets and Marketing; Hierarchies of Knowledge in Marketing; Marketing Inequalities: Feminisms and intersectionalities; The Ethics and Politics of Consumption. New case studies include: Emerging Economy Brands; The Fairtrade Brand; Disappearing Influencers; Decolonising the Media. Written by four experts in the field, this popular text successfully links marketing theory with practice, locating marketing ideas and applications within wider global, social and economic contexts. It provides a complete and thought-provoking overview for postgraduate, MBA and advanced undergraduate modules in marketing and consumer behaviour and a useful resource for dissertation study at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
