The Routledge Companion to Critical Marketing
The porosity of the consumer
In this paper, we explore and extend the work of Daniel Pick. Pick articulates the ways in which the political and intellectual atmosphere shapes how we understand human thought. As a case in point, advertising and marketing have been influenced by theories, concepts and empirical materials that problematised the materialistic interpretation of mind. This is most overt in the debates relating to hypnotism and telepathy. To extend Pick’s analyses,…
Conceptualizing an Interdisciplinary Collective Impact Approach to Examine and Intervene in the Chronic Cycle of Homelessness
Homelessness is a persistent problem in the United States in general and in Southern California especially. While progress has been made in reducing the number of people experiencing homelessness in the United States from 2007 (647,000) to 2019 (567,000), it remains an entrenched problem. The purpose of this paper is to outline a novel, interdisciplinary academic-practice partnership model to address homelessness. Where singular disciplinary appr…
Branding and Organizational Identity
Issues of branding and organizational identity have traditionally straddled the business disciplines and have received increasing attention since World War II. Branding and organizational identity refer to a process through which a pattern or a structure is ascribed to a group of individuals and recognized as unique, autonomous, and relatively stable in space and time. Organizational identity is a concern with what and who the organization is, an…
Becoming invisible
This speculative essay examines ‘invisible’ social identities and the processes by which they are manifested and occasionally sought. Using various literary and academic sources, and loosely informed by an unlikely combination of Stoic philosophy and post-structuralist politics, we argue that invisibility is conventionally viewed as undesirable or ‘suffered’ by individuals or groups that are disadvantaged or marginalised within society. Whilst ap…
Branding and organizational identity
Branding and organizational identity refers to a process through which a pattern or a structure is ascribed to a group of individuals and recognized as unique, autonomous, and relatively stable in space and time. There are a number of aspects to this: the organizational identity, which is a concern with where do “we” come from , what and who the organization is, and where “we” are going . In addition there is the branding, which is normally const…
Postmodernism and Popularisation
Popular accounts of science have helped to stimulate greater public interest in the role of science in contemporary society. For example, chaos theory and complexity theory have proven to be highly marketable science "products". These concepts have increasingly travelled into wider culture and, notably, the study of organization. Through an interpretation that promotes a leaning towards uncertainty, unpredictability and ambiguity, these accounts …

Organising (Writing) in Our Post-Industrial Society'Imaginations of the future, like imaginations of the past, are devices for living in the present (March, 1995, p.427).'

ARCH and Bilinearity as Competing Models for Nonlinear Dependence
In this article we consider whether the wide acceptance of autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) models may be at the expense of other nonlinear processes, such as bilinear models. We first propose a joint test for ARCH and bilinearity. A nonnested test is then suggested to determine whether nonlinear dependence should be attributed to ARCH or bilinearity. The tests are then applied to three series. When generalized ARCH (GARCH) mo…
Age Structure Dynamics in Asia and Dependence on Foreign Capital
Rising fertility and declining mortality have had a profound impact on Asian savings investment and foreign capital dependency since Coale and Hoover wrote in 1958. This article argues that much of the impressive rise in Asian savings rates since the 1960s can be explained by the equally impressive decline in youth dependency burdens. Wherever the youth dependency burden has fallen dramatically Asian countries have relinquished their reliance on …
Interaction Between Autocorrelation and Conditional Heteroscedasticity
In applied econometrics, we tend to tackle specification problems one at a time rather than considering them jointly. This has serious consequences for statistical inference. One example of this is considering autocorrelation and autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) separately. In this article we consider a linear regression model with random coefficient autoregressive disturbances that provides a convenient framework to analyze a…
