Call for Papers
Special Issue of Journal of Business Ethics on Confucian/Chopstick Marketing

The goal of this special issue is to explore the potential and current use of Confucian values in marketing. Although submitted manuscripts may focus on theory development, empirical testing, or case analysis, they should further understanding of why and how Confucian values could and do influence marketing theory and practice.  Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Evidence of Confucian values in advertising appeals
  • Confucian values and corporate social responsibility in marketing
  • Differences and similarities between Confucian and Western marketing ethics
  • Confucian values and anti-consumption/voluntary simplicity
  • Confucian values and the marketing mix
  • Confucian values in business negotiations

No later than January 31, 2008, manuscripts should be submitted as an e-mail attachment to one of the three guest editors listed below. The reviewing process will be similar to that used for previous special issues, including the use of guest editors and a specialist review panel.
