While previous research has focused on luxury as a global business and how companies have generated, communicated and monetized luxury, this book draws on empirical research to examine how consumers understand and interact with it.
Beata Stępień is Professor in the Department of International Management at the Poznań University of Economics and Business, Poland. She has published widely on consumer behaviour and multinational companies. Her recent research has focused on how value is created in new luxury markets.
