This ground-breaking book examines marketing's impact on economic development. Focused on the less developed and newly industrialized countries, Campbell and Reddy outline how marketing can and should be used as a primary tool by government, business, and private planners. Analysis of Japan's post-war economic development is used as a starting point for the book's development of a macro-behavioral model. The model, centered on marketing, includes the constructs of attitude, adaptation, and achievement orientation as the macro-behavioral keys of development. The model explains how those keys function best in an environment where government, business, and labor interact to facilitate development in a market economy. After reviewing some definitional aspects of marketing and economic development, the book examines marketing's role in less developed countries. It examines the conditions in the former USSR and its satellites and shows how marketing could facilitate their vitally needed economic development. The model, based on Japan's development, is proposed. It is then shown how the model can explain the successful economic development of Setubal, Portugal. India is examined as an example of the countries which should apply the model to hasten economic development.

This book examines issues and implications of digital and social media marketing for emerging markets. These markets necessitate substantial adaptations of developed theories and approaches employed in the Western world. The book investigates problems specific to emerging markets, while identifying new theoretical constructs and practical applications of digital marketing. It addresses topics such as electronic word of mouth (eWOM), demographic differences in digital marketing, mobile marketing, search engine advertising, among others. A radical increase in both temporal and geographical reach is empowering consumers to exert influence on brands, products, and services. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and digital media are having a significant impact on the way people communicate and fulfil their socio-economic, emotional and material needs. These technologies are also being harnessed by businesses for various purposes including distribution and selling of goods, retailing of consumer services, customer relationship management, and influencing consumer behaviour by employing digital marketing practices. This book considers this, as it examines the practice and research related to digital and social media marketing.

Adverse environmental impacts such as greenhouse gas emissions and chemical spills have put the topic of green business firmly on the sustainability agenda. Despite the burgeoning literature on green business and green marketing from the globalised north, there is relative parsimony of green business literature in the global south. This book offers a greater understanding of what green marketing is, as well as the various levels of practices and the implementations thereof. It places specific emphasis on the people through which green marketing excellence can be achieved. Contributors argue that, given the complexity of green marketing, people management plays a key role in achieving green marketing success, and the chapters consider the role that green human resource management practices play in marketing. Providing a unique perspective on the successful implementation of green marketing, this book is an important resource for students, researchers and practitioners. It is of particular interest to those who desire a greater understanding of how organisations deal internally and externally with increasing pressure to become more socially responsible and embed ‘greenness’ in all their marketing activities.
