Preface
There is a sustained increase of interest in the emerging markets by Westernbusinesses. Emerging markets are no longer only seen as sources of cheap labourand raw materials but increasingly becoming markets of primary importance dueto growing economic prominence and consumer purchasing power. However, atthe same time, emerging markets are fraught with several complex economic,political and social issues which often frustrate and confuse Western investors.Understanding these issues is crucial to students and professionals in the inter-national business, marketing, strategy and management fields. Surprisingly,despite the fact that experts acknowledge the importance of these markets, there isa dearth of real case studies specially focussed on marketing issues in thesemarkets and limited body of knowledge on the complex socio-cultural, politicaland economic dynamics and issues which are unique to these countries’ contexts.
This book is composed of long and short real cases with varying complexity indifferent sectors including airlines, hotel, fashion, etc. These cover issues areunique to the emerging markets. Thus, this case study book is believed to beimportant and timely in providing a framework for marketing educators, studentsand researchers (both academic and industry) to understand the dynamics occur-ring in these countries. We expect this case study book to appeal to a broadaudience internationally and the book can be used for both undergraduate andgraduate level courses in marketing, advertising, strategic marketing, marketingethics and international business programmes.
This is an edited case study book with contributions from lecturers in theDepartment of Marketing and Advertising, Coventry Business School, CoventryUniversity, Coventry along with their collaborators in other universities as well asindustry professionals. The lecturers have varied research interests and a numberof them have professional backgrounds with several years’ of industry experience.The integration of these varied academic and professional viewpoints has resultedin a very unique and exciting content.
We welcome your comments and suggestions for further improving this book.
