The first of this two-volume work brings to the fore marketing communication theories and concepts that are prominent in emerging economy contexts, and highlights the opportunities and challenges within these markets.  Offering a distinctive meaning and importance to both the practice and the theory of marketing communications in emerging economies, this collection introduces the foundational issues of marketing communications as well as the broader marketing communication environment and how they impact on communication strategy development and implementation. With contributors from diverse disciplines, the book establishes the importance of linking customer value creation, national culture and the management process with the marketing communications strategy. It highlights the critical role of research, the changing trends in marketing communication in the digital age and the communication opportunities for small and large brands. This book is a useful tool for orporate executives, educators, students, policymakers and businesses on marketing communication in emerging markets. 

This book addresses the environmental, social, and economic challenges that corporations in emerging economies face, focusing on sustainability marketing as a paradigm-shifting approach. Drawing from cases across several emerging economies, including South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, and Turkey, it examines how organisations can create long-term societal value through sustainable practices.

Reflecting the increasing pressure for organisations to adopt sustainability practices, the need for this book is rooted in what organisations in emerging economies stand to gain from the adoption and implementation of sustainable marketing strategies. Chapters address consumer behaviour and demonstrate best practices for integrating sustainability into marketing strategies. The opportunities and challenges associated with implementing sustainability strategies post-COVID are also explored.

This book, therefore, offers essential pathways and shares evidence of sustainability marketing. Covering topics such as the sustainability marketing mix, social marketing, sustainable consumption, and the role of communication, it is a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussion on sustainability from the perspective of emerging economies.
