What is the state-of-art in the field of gender, marketing and consumer behavior?

What is it about?

For this special issue, we invited contributions that draw on gender as a theoretical concept and work towards theorizing gender and gendering theory in the field of marketing and consumer research. The articles published in the special issue draw attention to the idea that gender is a cultural category that is underpinned by socially constructed and contested assumptions and norms about identity and sexuality. Connecting the study of marketing and consumer behavior to different theoretical perspectives on gender, the articles explore and critically examine the gendered nature and dimensions of contemporary marketplace activity.
