Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethical consumerism is on the rise. No longer bound to the counter-cultural fringes, ethical concerns and practices are reaching into the mainstream of society and being adopted by everyday consumers – from considering carbon miles to purchasing free-range eggs to making renewable energy choices. The wide reach and magnitude of ethical issues in society across individual and collective consumption has given rise to a series of important questions that are inspiring scholars from a range of disciplinary areas. These differing disciplinary lenses, however, tend to be contained in separate streams of research literature that are developing in parallel and in relative isolation. Ethics in Morality and Consumption takes an interdisciplinary perspective to provide multiple vantage points in creating a more holistic and integrated view of ethics in consumption. In this sense, interdisciplinary presupposes the consideration of multiple and distinct disciplines, which in this book are considered in delineated chapters. In addition, the Editors make an editorial contribution in the final chapter of the book by combining these separate disciplinary perspectives to develop a nascent interdisciplinary perspective that integrates these perspectives and presents platforms for further research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethical Issues in International Marketing is a valuable resource for readers’increasing need for knowledge of this important area. In recent years, ethical issues in international marketing have come to the forefront due to publicity and controversy generated from several international cases of questionable ethics. To date, little research has been conducted in the area of international marketing ethics. Delener's book comes at an important time to alert readers to the growing concern for greater ethical behavior in the international marketing arena. It provides illustrations to give readers hands-on experiences that can transfer directly into the marketing world.Delener and his contributing authors identify the unique importance of ethics and corporate social responsibility in global markets. Ethical Issues in International Marketing was conceived to allow researchers the liberty to explore the topic in the context of an environment supportive of the difficulties associated with this type of research. The contributing authors discuss these main topics: A social contract for analyzing and evaluating the activities of transnational corporations in developing countries The relationship of marketing ethics to gray markets for consumer goods How moral commitment is shaped by socialization and role of culture in Turkey The relationship between Egyptian consumers’ideology and theirperceptions of ethical behavior Readers who desire to make steps toward better global decisionmaking will find this a compelling book. The authors make readers realize that conducting business transactions efficiently and effectively in a mere technocratic sense is no longer sufficient. Ethical issues in the international marketing environment are best addressed in learning more about the differences between cultures, which this book begins to do.

Book excerpt: Arising from foundations in green and eco-consumerism, ethical consumption is a multidisciplinary area of research. This shortform book presents an expert view of the empirical evidence on ethical consumption, incorporating perspectives from marketing, psychology and sociology. It takes both a historical and a thematic perspective, covering definitions of ethical consumption, typologies of ethical consumer practices, successes brought about from consumer actions and the current challenges. It also focuses on the emergence of contemporary perspectives on ethical consumer behaviour from three discrete perspectives: those focusing on consumer segmentation (the profiling of ethical consumers), those which take a psychological approach (the decision- making processes which underpin ethical consumption) and those which are sociological in nature (the identities and practices which underpin ethical consumption). The book finally synthesises these perspectives in the context of the ‘problems’ that are often claimed to exist, such as the existence of the ‘attitude– behaviour gap’, and provides conclusions which make recommendations for practice and further research. It will be of interest to academics and students of marketing, consumption and related fields, as well as to practitioners and policymakers who want to understand more about the evidence pertaining to ethical consumers, what motivates them, and how to encourage and educate them to consume more ethically.

Download or read book Ethical Consumption written by Tania Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A not-so-quiet revolution seems to be occurring in wealthy capitalist societies - supermarkets selling ‘guilt free’ Fairtrade products; lifestyle TV gurus exhorting us to eat less, buy local and go green; neighbourhood action groups bent on ‘swopping not shopping’. And this is happening not at the margins of society but at its heart, in the shopping centres and homes of ordinary people. Today we are seeing a mainstreaming of ethical concerns around consumption that reflects an increasing anxiety with - and accompanying sense of responsibility for - the risks and excesses of contemporary lifestyles in the ‘global north’. This collection of essays provides a range of critical tools for understanding the turn towards responsible or conscience consumption and, in the process, interrogates the notion that we can shop our way to a more ethical, sustainable future. Written by leading international scholars from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds - and drawing upon examples from across the globe - Ethical Consumption makes a major contribution to the still fledgling field of ethical consumption studies. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in the relationship between consumer culture and contemporary social life.

Download or read book Multifaceted Explorations of Consumer Culture and Its Impact on Individuals and Society written by Burns, David J. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer culture influences virtually all activities within modern societies and has become an important area of study for businesses. Logical analysis of consumer behavior is difficult as humans have different reasons for repeatedly buying products they need or want, and it is challenging to follow why they buy unneeded or unwanted products regularly. Without a comprehensive understanding of consumer culture as the basis, market discussions become empty and produce little insight into the power consumers hold in affecting other individuals and society. Multifaceted Explorations of Consumer Culture and Its Impact on Individuals and Society provides emerging research from different perspectives on the basis and ramifications of consumer culture, as well as how it affects all aspects of the lives of individuals. While providing a platform for exploring interpersonal interactions and issues related to ethics in marketing, readers will gain valuable insight into areas such as consumer vs. producer mentality, the effects of consumerism on developing countries, and the consequences of consumerism. This book is an important resource for marketing professionals, business managers, sociologists, students, academicians, researchers, and consumer professionals.

Download or read book The Role of Culture and Religion on the Dimensions of Consumers' Ethical Beliefs with the Mediatory Role of Morality written by Muhammad Yousuf Nasim and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer's ethical predisposition is a complex and highly subjective phenomenon. Individual differences may determine why one consumer recognizes an issue as a moral issue, whereas another does not. Some have argued that although many acts unethically because they intend to, others simply do not recognize the moral aspects of the situations in which they are involved and thus do not initiate the moral decision-making process. These Ethical Beliefs can be influenced by external factors such as Religion and culture, as well as individual moral identity. We proposed a theoretical framework explaining how Consumer's ethical predisposition are shaped linking religious and cultural factors. These factors affect ethical beliefs through the internalization of moral identity. For that, we modified (Huang & Lu, 2015) model of consumer ethics and combine it with (J. Vitell, et al., 2015) model to include moral identity. To measure consumer ethics, we applied (Vitell & Muncy, 1992) scale consisting of following dimensions (a) actively benefiting from illegal activities; (b) passively benefiting from questionable activities; (c) actively benefiting from deceptive legal activities; and (d) engaging in no harm and no foul activities. To empirically establish its validity, we apply this model to a sample size of 209 Pakistani consumers by means of a close-ended questionnaire. The data was later analyzed using structural equation modeling and confirmatory factor analysis. The results suggested that Religion/spirituality has found to be positively and significantly affecting all four dimensions of consumer ethics. Moreover, the internalization of moral identity seems to affect all consumer ethics except No harm dimension. Similarly, Collectivism has a significant impact on all consumer ethics except with Actively Benefiting and no harm dimension. Hence this implies that Consumers of Pakistan, who have high internalization of moral identity, Religion/spirituality beliefs, and collective culture are generally more ethical consumers.
