What fuels capitalism and what stops it from collapsing? Does marketing communications support and sustain the economic and political status quo?

This book is not about describing the ways in which businesses can optimize the messages they put across or about adding to the marketing communicator’s toolkit. This book argues that marketing communications plays an increasingly important role in bolstering contemporary capitalism. Drawing on conceptualizations of the ‘market’ from political economy and sociology, it focusses on five logics that underpin and sustain the form of capitalism in which we live: the logic of competition, the logic of sustainability, the logic of individualism, the logic of objectivity, and the logic of distraction. It does this by exploring those arenas which are increasingly dominated by the communicative activities of business: sport, CSR, social media, statistics, and entertainment.

Bringing theories from marketing and consumer research, sociology, cultural studies, technology and media studies to bear on marketing communications, this book is necessary reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students and academics who wish to understand the broader role of marketing communications in the reproduction of contemporary capitalism.

A tiny unseen virus has shut down businesses, crippled nations, and taken the lives of precious people. Those lives can never be replaced. And then there is the petty stuff like finding a single roll of toilet paper at the supermarket. People are wearing masks and gloves to protect themselves and others from this unseen enemy potentially hiding inside of friends, neighbors, and family members. Normal just isn’t normal anymore. Normal is just a place in people’s minds that everyone seems to want to get back to as soon as possible. Some people are even calling it a new normal, but what is that?

As the concept of going back to better is considered, Dr. Tim Hill, Tim Enochs, and Adam Enochs fully understand that some losses can never be replaced, and in that realm, there is no going back to better. In 49 Days Back to Better, they focus on areas where there is a choice whether to go back to normal in those areas or find the way back to something better.
