Inside Marketing: Practices, Ideologies, Devices
English | 376 pages | ISBN-10: 0199655839 | PDF | 2.32 MB
The intensification of marketing activities in recent years has led the
public to become much more aware of its role as consumers. Yet, the
increased visibility of marketing materials and associated messages in
everyday life is in contrast with the often little understood inner
workings of the marketing profession itself, despite the widespread
recognition of marketers as key agents in shaping the face of global
capitalism.
Inside Marketing offers a theoretically informed critical perspective on contemporary marketing practice and its
growing cultural, economic, and political influence worldwide. This
book brings together leading scholars and practitioners from the fields
of business, history, economic sociology, and cultural anthropology, to
analyse the inner workings and outer effects of marketing as a material
social practice, an ideology, and a technique. Their work raises some
important and timely questions. How has marketing transformed the
pharmaceutical industry and what are the consequences for our lives? How
does marketing influence the way we think of progress and modernity?
How has marketing changed the way we think of childhood? And how does
marketing appropriate the creativity of consumers for profit?
This book offers scholars, policy-makers, and practitioners a theoretical
and conceptual understanding of how marketing works as a cultural
institution and as an ideology.
Note: This is a must have book, As James Bennis said, “Don’t just learn the tricks of the trade. Learn the trade.”
