On the Commodity Trail The Journey of a Bargain Store Product from East to West

On the Commodity Trail The Journey of a Bargain Store Product from East to West

Following the journey of eight bargain store objects Alison Hulme reveals the complex story behind society’s simplest and cheapest commodities. Inspired by Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project On the Commodity Trail explores the colourful and fascinating histories of everyday objects. Along the way we observe raw materials on municipal rubbish dumps in China newly re-made products in the world’s largest wholesale market and take a journey across the seas to bargain stores in Europe and North America arriving finally in the homes of consumers. Weaving together narratives from the people we meet at different parts of the commodity chain – waste peddlers wholesalers store owners and shoppers – the book examines the places and people at the heart of these localized yet immense global networks. Unlike other investigations of commodity chains this study does not chart a straightforward trajectory from production to consumption. Instead it demonstrates that the low-end commodity chain is one of constant rupture in which products are made and re-made blurring the dividing line between producing and consuming. An ethnography of material culture as well as an examination of commodity culture at a time of economic downturn this deeply-engrossing book makes a unique contribution to our understanding of commodity chains and consumer culture. | On the Commodity Trail The Journey of a Bargain Store Product from East to West

Corporate Culture and Globalization Ideology and Identity in a Global Fashion Retailer

Corporate Culture and Globalization Ideology and Identity in a Global Fashion Retailer

This book offers an ethnographic analysis of how corporate culture has been transformed in the age of globalization and promotes the importance of a national ideology’s role in corporate culture studies. Based on 15 months of participant observation as a shop-floor salesperson this book explores the gap between management-created corporate ideology and employees’ interpretations of and responses to this ideology. This book approaches the issue by examining the formation dissemination and interpretation of corporate ideology at a global Japanese fashion retailer in Hong Kong. It does so by charting the history of the company’s corporate policy: from centralized attempts at corporate employee management through the creation of store manager missionaries intended to disseminate their ideology to the ultimately unexpected outcomes as corporate ideology collided with its interpretations by store employees. The interdisciplinary nature of this book will appeal to scholars and upper-level students in the fields of management marketing anthropology and cultural studies as well as those interested in globalization cross-cultural management and retail management. | Corporate Culture and Globalization Ideology and Identity in a Global Fashion Retailer

High Street How our town centres can bounce back from the retail crisis

High Street How our town centres can bounce back from the retail crisis

The high street is in crisis. How did we get here and what happens next? The global pandemic has made the crisis immeasurably worse but it wasn’t the cause. The crisis was already raging in 2019 with thousands of store closures. Large retailers became complacent and failed to respond to changing consumer behaviour. Town centres are the victims of these changes rather than the cause of them. To understand the current crisis and how it might be addressed this book takes a long view of retailing based on a hundred case studies. It looks at the way town centres responded to previous crises and explores current trends affecting town centres and how places are responding. The message is optimistic: adaptable town centres can once more become the diverse characterful independent places that existed before they were homogenised by big retail. Explore the past – understand the present – find a better future. | High Street How our town centres can bounce back from the retail crisis

Vinyl The Analogue Record in the Digital Age

Vinyl The Analogue Record in the Digital Age

Recent years have seen not just a revival but a rebirth of the analogue record. More than merely a nostalgic craze vinyl has become a cultural icon. As music consumption migrated to digital and online this seemingly obsolete medium became the fastest-growing format in music sales. Whilst vinyl never ceased to be the favorite amongst many music lovers and DJs from the late 1980s the recording industry regarded it as an outdated relic consigned to dusty domestic corners and obscure record shops. So why is vinyl now experiencing a ‘rebirth of its cool’?Dominik Bartmanski and Ian Woodward explore this question by combining a cultural sociological approach with insights from material culture studies. Presenting vinyl as a multifaceted cultural object they investigate the reasons behind its persistence within our technologically accelerated culture. Informed by media analysis urban ethnography and the authors’ interviews with musicians DJs sound engineers record store owners collectors and cutting-edge label chiefs from a range of metropolitan centres renowned for thriving music scenes including London New York Tokyo Melbourne and especially Berlin what emerges is a story of a modern icon. | Vinyl The Analogue Record in the Digital Age
