Nordic Consumer Culture
Unpacking the complexities of Nordic consumer culture, this edited collection responds to the growing interest in regionalism within consumer research and marketing. By taking a closer look at the interaction between the state and the market in Nordic countries, the authors examine how consumer behaviour is impacted by the region’s unique context. Important elements of Nordic culture are explored, such as its underlying element of mythology and the concept of ‘hygge,’ an object of global consumption. Those studying consumer behaviour, branding, and marketing more generally, will find this book a fascinating contribution to research.
Sexuality in Marketing and Consumption
This volume provides an in-depth examination of the role of sexuality in consumers’ life course and in the marketing of products and services.

While this book bu...
Unboxing Marketing
"How can marketing create value for consumers, firms, and society? What are the major societal trends that shape contemporary marketing? How and why has marketing become so influential that consumption now defines our entire culture? How can marketing practices contribute to shape society in a more positive way? These are examples of questions that are discussed and answered in this book. Unboxing Marketing problematizes and enriches marketing as it is taught in introductory courses. To do this, the authors use the metaphor of unboxing, which means to unwrap marketing like it was delivered in a closed box created by traditional marketing textbooks. The book builds on the latest scientific research to first unbox some of the major forces affecting society and marketing today, such as globalization, sustainabilization, and polarization. Then the unboxing moves on to how markets are made and remade, the role that value plays, and how contemporary consumer culture operates. Finally, the areas of marketing strategy, marketing research, and marketing in the digital era are unboxed."

Entangled Things
Entangled Things takes the concept of entanglement as its starting point in investigating the relationship between us and the material things we engage with. Each chapter illustrates a particular form of entanglement – desiring things, hoarding things, creating things, ridding ourselves of things – using ethnographic examples and theoretical perspectives. Hulme encourages a wider consideration of the place of humans in the world, and the kind of choices we enact when influenced by the material things around us. She explores our relationships with material objects in light of both personal and planetary ‘space’, and personal and historical time, from the space in our homes, storage sp...
