Markets are trading zones: on the material, cultural and interpretive dimensions of market encounters

John Finch, Susi Geiger

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter (peer-reviewed)

Abstract

The historical link between marketing and markets, prevalent until the 1960s, has given way to the view of marketing as a portable set of tools applicable to markets and non-markets alike. By re-establishing the connection between the two, this book examines the argument that marketing produces markets: marketing practices and theories play a very significant role in the production of markets and the kinds of entities and phenomena that populate markets.
