Marketing Work and Labour

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Marketers are, generally, paid workers. While this may seem self-evident, for us to fully understand the hybrid combinations of devices, individuals and organizations that partake in marketing work and in the configuration of market actors, we must acknowledge the impacts of working relationships that are deeply embedded into marketing practice. A Marxist analytic lens helps us to do this. It encourages us to explore how the organization of marketing work produces and exploits value from marketing workers.
