The globalization of marketing has brought about an interesting paradox: as the discipline becomes more global, the need to understand cultural differences becomes all the more crucial. This is the challenge in an increasingly international marketplace and a problem that the world's most powerful businesses must solve. From this challenge has grown the exciting discipline of ethnic marketing, which seeks to understand the considerable opportunities and challenges presented by cultural and ethnic diversity in the marketplace.To date, scholarship in the area has been lively but disparate. This volume brings together cutting-edge research on ethnic marketing from thought leaders across the world. Each chapter covers a key theme, reflecting the increasing diversity of the latest research, including models of culture change, parenting and socialization, responses to web and advertising, role of space and social innovation in ethnic marketing, ethnic consumer decision making, religiosity, differing attitudes to materialism, acculturation, targeting and ethical and public policy issues.The result is a solid framework and a comprehensive reference point for consumer researchers, students, and practitioners.

Building on the success of the first edition , the new edition of of Consumer Behaviour has been  fully revised and updated to be even more student friendly. Through the author teams seven decades of teaching and  researching experience they have discovered that the application of concepts via practical examples is the best delivery method for effective lerning. Consumer Behaviour is a European text that is built around how students actaully learn consumer behaviour.Evans, Foxall and Jamal offer a mainstream consumer behaviour textbook, based on semesterised compulsory or optional modules on undergraduate and postgraduate business and marketing programmes. The student centred approach is manifested in the use of cases and exercises to be used in participative and applied ways, reflecting the clear trend towards student centred and application-based marketing courses.
