Journal of Marketing Special Issue: “Better Marketing for a Better World”
Edited by Rajesh K. Chandy, Gita V. Johar, Christine Moorman, and John H. Roberts
Read the entire Special Issue
Editorial: Better Marketing for a Better World
The Special Issue editors make the case that it is time for research focused on Better Marketing for a Better World to be more central to the field. BMBW research examines the impact of marketing beyond the firm’s bottom line with the goal of enhancing the welfare of the world’s other stakeholders and institutions. The editors suggest that too often, researchers’ assumptions about BMBW research act as barriers that prevent them from pursuing BMBW research. Given this background, the editors offer recommendations on how these barriers can be overcome individually and institutionally. They invite scholars to make BMBW research central to their research agenda and offer three initiatives to create an active BMBW research community.

Call for Manuscripts: Marketing in the Healthcare Sector, Special Issue of the Journal of Marketing
Healthcare is vital to our interconnected world. As the world faces a pandemic of a magnitude not witnessed for over 100 years, we are reminded of its fundamental role. Consumers (patients) seek health, healthcare providers and institutions work to deliver care, insurance companies and governments monitor its costs, markets compete on it, policy regulates it, and society benefits from its successes or is challenged by its failings. Marketing as a discipline, however, has not lived up to its potential contributions to this important aspect of our lives. This Journal of Marketing Special Issue is dedicated to promoting research on healthcare marketing with the goal of improving knowledge of this critical research domain.
- Review the call for papers, including relevant topics, types of papers, and editorial review process.
- Watch videos from a group of leading scholars sharing their views on unanswered questions facing marketing in the healthcare sector. Participants include Leonard Berry, Punam Keller, Irina Kozlenkova, Cait Lamberton, John Lynch, Detelina Marinova, Vikas Mittal, Maura Scott, Steve Shugan, Jagdip Singh, Hari Sridhar, S Sriram, and Rick Staelin. Thanks to Hayoung Cheon (University of Michigan) and Nah Lee (Duke University) for writing up the associated summaries.
