Abstract

In this chapter, I elaborate on my work on identity-in-creation, published in Marketing Theory s(Rojas-Gaviria, 2021). Identity-in-creation is presented in sharp contrast to the dominant theorisation of the identity project in consumer research. The chapter joins the existing critical marketing and consumer research literature to contribute to the collective efforts to enrich our toolkit to represent identity in the making. It is an invitation for academics and practitioners to represent the human world more humbly to compensate for the supremacy of the self-will representation so firmly embedded in the notion of the identity project.
