“…For instance, Northey et al (2020) examine how individuals’ political ideologies determine their emotional responses to consumer advertisements and how these act as causal mechanisms responsible for product-related attitudes. Kapoor and Belk (2020) and Ram et al (2019) look at the impact of religion on consumer decision making processes. Extant research only appears to include certain age, class, and educational compositions of LGBTQ+ respondents and hence research considering the wider impact of age, class, and education (i.e., different socio-economic groups and generations) appears absent.…”

In Pursuit of the “Pink Pound”: A Systematic Literature Review

The visibility of non-heterosexual identities is more prevalent today than ever before, yet there is little research about the consumption behaviors and preferences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, queer, 2/two-spirit, questioning, intersex, asexual, ally, and other non-heterosexual (LGBTQ+) consumers—often referred to as the “pink pound”. A rare systematic review of LGBTQ+ literature is presented in this paper with the purpose of offering an argument for a wider adoption by marketing scholars and practitioners for research into LGBTQ+ consumer segments. The results of a longitudinal bibliometric analysis are presented to objectively demonstrate the hitherto limited engagement that consumer researchers have had with the discipline, and the limited degree that the discipline has influenced that literature. The key findings reveal a growing, but formative body of inter- and intra-disciplinary literature that, hitherto, has only just begun to be addressed by present day marketing researchers. A conclusion of the paper is that although the bibliometric analysis identifies the limited engagement with LGBTQ+ consumer research, this limited engagement appears to present a very significant lacuna and just as significant an opportunity for both marketing scholars and practitioners to engage much further with this literature in the future. Building on the analysis, the value of the paper also discusses potential directions for further research in marketing scholarship and practice.

“…Penaloza (1995) found that immigrant consumers become more vulnerable due to internal characteristics such as language proficiency, literacy level, and experience in the marketplace. It is related to the fact that limited literacy skills increase the potential for economic, physical, and psychological harm in the marketplace (Adkins and Jae 2010;Ozanne 2005a, 2005b;Kapoor and Belk 2022;Ozanne, Adkins, and Sandlin 2005;Viswanathan, Rosa, and Harris 2005;Viswanathan et al 2021aViswanathan et al , 2021b. Adkins and Ozanne (2005a) present a social practice conceptualization of literacy which means a consumer skill including understanding consumer rights, managing exchange transactions and miscommunications, asserting one's voice and achieving agency in the marketplace.…”

The U.S. Government's Program of Welfare for the Wealthy

It is important that macromarketers understand how income and wealth inequality affect the way people think, live, and die. It is also important that they understand the source(s) of that inequality. This paper discusses how the power elite and the rich used the law to strategically withhold from the bottom 99 percent of the population the wealth generated in the post-World War II economy. This included more than a dozen specific stealth activities the U.S. government enacted from 1970 to 2010, although only a few are highlighted in this commentary. These activities created a Program of Welfare for the Wealthy that worked against the general welfare of the American people. We refer to these as stealth activities because much of what happens in government occurs behind the scenes, in the dark.

“…Through the conceptual lens of consumer culture theory, Cluster 2's articles investigate how consumption allows LGBTQIA+ consumers to deal with stigma and discrimination (Kapoor and Belk 2022;Kates 2002). Consumption becomes the vehicle that enables LGBTQIA+ consumers' identity formation (Hsieh and Wu 2011;Kates 2002Kates , 2004 and the emergence of LGBTQIA+ subcultures (Haslop, Hill, and Schmidt 1998;Kates 2002), tribes (Aung and Sha 2016), and communities (Kates 2004).…”

Although governments and organizations are increasingly addressing the importance of diversity and inclusion policies, LGBTQIA+ consumers still experience instances of discrimination and stigmatization in the market. It is, therefore, imperative that research identifies barriers and struggles that these consumers face in order to inspire more inclusive marketplace practices. By combining bibliometric and automated text mining methods, this article systematically reviews the existing scholarship on LGBTQIA+ issues at the intersection of marketing and public policy and identifies five thematic clusters: consumer experiences, marginalized consumer identities, imagery creation in advertising, marketplace policies, and minority targeting strategies. Further, this article plots the temporal evolution of this literature domain and identifies three substantive phases: crisis, marketization, and advocacy. The outcome is a phasic framework that unpacks how the LGBTQIA+ consumer market emerged and evolved. This conceptual framework can be used to understand and strategically invigorate research that leads to more inclusive marketing and public policy efforts.
