Abstract

Purpose

This paper was written to put “on record” what, in retrospect, appear to the author to be the most significant aspects of his academic career, one that spans more than half a century.

Design/methodology/approach

The author begins by discussing his Wharton School experience (1957‐1964) and then traces how his activities and experiences at that time laid the groundwork for a number of career long themes (academic administration, pedagogy, and quasi‐governmental consulting) and academic interests (macromarketing, marketing history).

Findings

The author's Wharton School experiences and, more specifically, his contacts with Wroe Alderson and David D. Monieson did indeed shape his subsequent career.

Originality/value

This paper calls attention to certain events and research efforts that might otherwise be forgotten. It also serves as an example of one approach others might follow in preparing their own career retrospectives.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to familiarize readers with the nature and scope of the current global economic crisis, its implications for economic development, and what macromarketing can contribute both to better understanding and solutions.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper is a controversies‐based examination, including a selective, multi‐disciplinary literature review and personal observation with a focus on the past, the present and the likely future of economic development.

Findings

The paper reports on global trends in economic development, shares prognoses, and suggests the importance of macromarketing perspectives and practices to advance individual and societal well being.

Originality/value

This paper provides a fresh, multi‐disciplinary perspective on controversies vis‐à‐vis economic development, while reflecting on past perspectives and new directions for individual and societal well being.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to provide a briefly annotated bibliography of some 200 items that together constitute a “select list” of the available academic literature on the history of Canadian marketing from the seventeenth century to the beginning of Second World War.

Design/methodology/approach

After all the available academic literature on Canadian marketing the authors could uncover was examined, the most relevant, interesting, and accessible material was identified and annotated. In addition, all of the literature considered in any way pertinent was added to a more complete bibliography available on the CHARM web site.

Findings

Though existing Canadian business and economic history texts and courses tend to pay far more attention to other topics, there is a rich and varied literature on the history of Canadian marketing.

Research limitations/implications

No selections are included from either archival sources or the popular press nor are unpublished theses or dissertations cited.

Originality/value

This appears to be the first annotated bibliography on the history of Canadian marketing ever to have been compiled and published.

Abstract

Purpose

To familiarize readers with the nature, scope and history of macromarketing and, more specifically, with the European contribution to macromarketing.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper is based on a selective literature review and personal observation with a focus on the past, the present and the likely future of macromarketing.

Findings

The paper reports both on the limited degree of emphasis placed on macromarketing by marketing scholars and the reasons why macromarketing has not received more attention.

Originality/value

This paper provides a heretofore missing overview of the nature and scope of an important subdiscipline within academic marketing. The European contribution to macromarketing is discussed in considerable detail. Some personal views on the likely future development of this area are also offered.
