The consumer production journey: marketing to consumers as co-producers in th…

New digital technologies not only support consumers in better fulfilling their own consumption needs but also enable them to create greater value for other consumers.

Towards a political economy of communication in development? (e-journal)

In the development communication equation, whether more theoretical, empirical and analytical attention is given to 'development' or to 'communication' makes a difference: where the emphasis is on development, it is at the expense of communication. Since communication and media arguably play an increasingly pervasive role in the everyday life of citizens and in the politics, economies and gover…

Winning with a bad economy (e-journal)

How can an incumbent win reelection with a bad economy, as Barack Obama did in 2012, defying many forecasts? We focus on the attribution of responsibility at times of severe economic change.
