This groundbreaking book recognises and addresses the urgent need
to develop a new understanding of marketing. Based on the
involvement of twenty thought leaders from Europe and the US, this
book gives us both a state of the art picture of marketing today
and a look ahead to the marketing challenges of tomorrow.
Since the publication of Kotler's Marketing Management in 1967,
marketing has witnessed a dramatic increase in academic
involvement. Today there is an extensive range of publications
available covering a variety of topics - from cognitive studies of
consumer behaviour to organising international distribution - but
the 4 Ps, based on the marketing mix model, remains as the dominant
theoretical base. Rethinking Marketing demonstrates a misfit
between the existing theoretical toolbox and important development
trends in the marketplace.
Three basic issues are addressed:
- How should we look at the market and its different forms, given
the existence of dynamics?
- How should we look upon the exchange between market players
given the existence of relationships and other close cooperative
efforts?
- What kind of scientific approaches can we use when studying
markets and market players?
Following a comprehensive discussion of these issues the book
concludes by reexamining existing theories in light of these new
ideas, challenging existing ways of thinking and looking towards a
new future for marketing.
