There aren’t many cities like Valencia which can harmoniously combine the remnants of its most distant past, dating to the year 138 BC, with the most innovative and avant-garde buildings from the new millennium. Valencia is trade, culture, cinema, theatre, magic, museums and business. It is one of the most active cities in Europe for fairs and conferences. Thanks to its location, Valencia has historically been Spain’s Mediterranean port giving it a special charm, along with fine sand and pure water. The vastness of the sea and the closeness of the mountains make the Valencian coast uniquely attractive. In this EMAC edition out of 999 papers submitted, 528 were accepted into 21 tracks, for an acceptance rate of 53% which proves the stiff competition and hence the higher standards of research that EMAC attendees demonstrate every year. The accepted papers are organised into 161 competitive track sessions. In order to balance the programme we have allocated no more than 14 parallel sessions per time and avoided parallel scheduling of the same track except Consumer Behaviour and Advertising, Promotion and Marketing Communication tracks which received a higher number of papers than the other tracks. Seven Special Interest Groups are also included in the programme in a total of 7 sessions. Additionally 115 posters will be presented during the Conference. The Doctoral Colloquium (DC) received 154 submissions, 60 of which were selected for presentation in either the beginners or advanced group. Each group encompasses three tracks: “Consumer Behaviour”, “Marketing Mix Instruments” and, “Strategy and Internet”. The DC is chaired by Thomas Otter and involves 18 faculty members from Europe, USA and Australia. This year we aim to retrieve a lost tradition of having an opening ceremony and a key note speaker. Michel Wedel from the University of Maryland will give the speech in a plenary session. The Conference has other sessions of great interest. Professor Hubert Gatignon of INSEAD is the winner of the EMAC Distinguished Marketing Scholar Award 2014. This annual award is designed to be the highest honor for a marketing educator with extensive connections with EMAC. In addition to the 5 PARADIGM SHIFTS & INTERACTIONS daily sessions on state-of-the-art studies in marketing, there are also special events presenting prize-winning OVERVIEW CONFERENCE research with the IJRM Best Paper Award, The Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long Term Impact, EMAC Mc Kinsey Award, EMAC Best Paper Award Based on a Doctoral Dissertation, and ISMS-MSI Best Paper Award together with guest sessions chaired by Tülin Erden, NYU Stern and Klaus Wertenbroch, INSEAD. The host of this Conference, the University of Valencia, was founded five centuries ago, being a European public University that it is open to almost every branch of teaching, research and learning. The University of Valencia, today, is the outcome of more than five centuries of history that have led to the accumulation of knowledge and unique documentary treasures making it one of the top Spanish universities. The Faculty of Economics has its origin in the former School of Commerce in the eighteenth century. Nowadays it offers six undergraduate studies in Business, Economics, and Tourism, and more than fifteen master degrees, including a Master’s degree in Marketing and Market Research, an International MBA with a specialization in Marketing, and a professional Master’s degree in Marketing and Communication. In terms of research and according to the 2013 Shanghai Ranking, the Faculty of Economics of the University of Valencia ties second in Spain in the field of Economics and Business with Carlos III University of Madrid, after Pompeu Fabra University. The Marketing Department has a variety of research interests; mainly focused on Advertising-IMC, Consumer Behaviour, Distribution Channels, E-marketing, International Marketing, Strategic Marketing and Tourism Marketing. It has 29 full time research faculty members and 17 part-time members. It offers one PhD program in marketing and various courses for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Welcome to the University of Valencia! EMAC awaits you here Enrique Bigné Conference Chair of EMAC 2014 Professor of Marketing at University of Valencia 6 43rd EMAC CONFERENCE 2014 / UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OVERVIEW We would like to thank all the authors who submitted their best work to EMAC 2014.

I am especially grateful for their belief in me throughout this entire journey. I might not be your average PhD researcher, but they always gave me the space and confidence to follow my interests and pursue my ideas. I am grateful to the members of the exam committee for their insightful comments and for the questions they raised. These will certainly benefit my (hopefully) forthcoming papers and I already believe they brought them to a higher level. I feel very grateful for my colleagues and ex-colleagues for making our department such an amazzzing place to work at. And especially my office mates for always being able to turn my frown upside down.

  • Internet Nondiscrimination Principles: Commercial Ethics for Carriers and Search Engines
    5/4/2008 5:24:10 PM Internet Nondiscrimination Principles: Commercial Ethics for Carriers and Search Engines Frank Pasquale† I. INTRODUCTION Dominant search engines (“DSEs”)1 are becoming a hub of convergence culture.2 They provide an ever-expanding array of services.3 As they amass information about their users, calls for † Professor of Law, Seton Hall Law School; Associate Director of the Gibbons Insti- tute of Law, Science, and Technology, Seton Hall University. I wish to thank the Univer- sity of Chicago Legal Forum for asking me to present this article. Marina Lao, Ellen Goodman, James Grimmelmann, Danielle Citron, and Brett Frischmann offered very insightful comments. 1 We can provisionally define a dominant search engine (DSE) as one with over 30 percent market share. Google clearly satisfies this criterion in the U.S. and much of Eu- rope. See Steve Lohr, As its Stock Tops $600, Google Faces Growing Risks, NY Times C1 (Oct 13, 2007) (remarking that “[i]n September, Google’s share of Web searches in the United States was 67 percent, up from 54 percent a year earlier, reports Compete.com, a Web analytics firm. The Yahoo share was 19 percent, compared with 29 percent a year earlier. And Microsoft had 9 percent, up slightly from a year ago.”). But Google would not qualify as a DSE in South Korea, where Naver dominates. See, for example, Choe Sang- Hun, South Koreans Connect Through Search Engine, NY Times (July 5, 2007), available at <http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/05/technology/05online.html?ref=technology> (last visited Mar 28, 2008) (noting that “[w]eb users in one of the world’s most-wired countries seldom “Google” anything.

  • Incentives, Demographics, and Biases of Ethical Consumption: Observation of Modern Ethical Consumers
    Incentives, Demographics, and Biases of Ethical Consumption: Observation of Modern Ethical Consumers Laura Kim University of California, Berkeley B.A. of Economics and Statistics Thesis Advisor J. Bradford DeLong Special Thanks to Professor Demian Pouzo, Professor Kyong Shik Eom Abstract This paper seeks to offer a better understanding of modern consumers’ incentives, intentions and behavior regarding “ethical consumption”. Using likelihood treatment models, we find that both the likelihood and increase in ethical consumption is less contingent on income but rather on the amount of entire purchase of consumers. Increase in year of education has significant positive effect on ethical consumption, particularly to female consumers. Racial and regional characteristics are not significant predictors of ethical consumption. Purchase of ethical products are also influenced by internal motivation of consumers defined as ‘identifying incentive,’ which in turn depends on various factors that influence consumption. This paper argues that because of the heightened importance of the consumers’ decision making, not only should we explore the decision making of the consumers but also enlarge the scope of knowledge of such consumers of their incentives, demographics, and biases regarding altruistic consumption. Engaging with extensive literature on consumer behavior, this paper uses the Nielsen data and datasets from Label Insight to discover pieces of information that helps us identify factors that contribute to someone’s ethical purchase. Keywords: ethical consumption, consumerism, social responsibility, consumer behavior 1. Introduction The standard economic model essentially suggests that consumers will be consistently rational, utility maximizing, and self-interested upon decision making. Rational and self-interested economic agents from our model is expected to make rational choices that give them the most utility per dollar spent by maximizing their consumption bundles with respect to their budget constraints.

Isenhour, Cindy. 2012. Can Consumer Demand Deliver Sustainable Food?: Recent Research in Sustainable Consumption Policy & Practice. Environment & Society 2(1): 5-28. Introduction Food has always played a central, mediating role in the relationship between humans and our environments. Anthropologists and historians, among others, have long illustrated how subsistence systems have helped to shape our societies, linking people and our views of the world to localized experiences of gathering, preparing and consuming food. Yet today, in the context of an increasingly standardized and industrial global food system, the separation of food as a social product from the economic and natural systems that produce it has inspired significant protest (Walter 2008, Wilk 2006). Food activists have contested the conditions that alienate us, physically and emotionally, from the human and natural systems that generate our sustenance, lamented the loss of control over our food supply, and advocated a return to safe, sustainable and healthy foods.
