Cross-Cultural Marketing

Viewing Europe as the centre of intercultural confrontation with its own set of subcultures, Cross-Cultural Marketing analyses the cultural comparison between East and West from a European perspective. Structured in four parts, the textbook explores the cross-cultural approach; a model of cross-cultural marketing strategy; marketing choices and decisions, and cross-cultural marketing challenges. At the end of each part, business cases and intercultural stories pose challenging questions for students’ discussion.
