  • Coca-Cola, Globalization, and the Cultural Politics of Branding in the Twentieth Century
    The Company that Taught the World to Sing: Coca-Cola, Globalization, and the Cultural Politics of Branding in the Twentieth Century by Laura A. Hymson A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor, James W. Cook, Chair Professor Philip J. Deloria Professor Susan J. Douglass Professor Penny Von Eschen © Laura A. Hymson 2011 Acknowledgements I owe an extraordinary debt to the people and institutions that helped and supported me as I worked to complete this dissertation. While working on this project, I spent time in several cities, including: Ann Arbor, New York, Atlanta, Urbana- Champagne, Alexandria, Washington, D.C, Newark, and Hartford. In all of these places where I have lived, researched, or taught, I have been shown incredible kindness and I am grateful for everyone who has helped me along the way. Thanks first to the chair of my dissertation committee, Jay Cook, who has been exceptionally generous with his time. Without his insightful feedback, invaluable advice, and thoughtful comments this dissertation would not have been possible. I can only hope to be as effective and compassionate as a teacher and mentor as he has been to me. My entire dissertation committee was composed of scholars whose work I truly admire and I am grateful for the time they devoted to my ideas and my work. Penny Von Eschen and Phil Deloria provided important feedback on drafts, and made suggestions for research and writing that helped advance my thinking on a number key issues at the heart of this project.

  • Portraying a Branded World
    PORTRAYING A BRANDED WORLD Daniel E. Newman† I. INTRODUCTION Using trademarks as an actual product in brand merchandise, rather than to signal product origin, is a longstanding commercial practice that caters to the human need to define oneself in public through social signaling.1 People pay extra for goods bearing a logo because they value the ability to signal who they are via the clothes they wear,2 and not just by the products they own. The trademark attains value as a product in and of itself, divorced from any underlying physical good.3 Trademark owners in the last few decades have captured much of the value of a logo as an independent product through the control and promotion of † Associate, Davis Polk & Wardell; J.D., Georgetown University Law Center, 2008; B.A., Sociology, State University of New York at Albany, 1993. The author wishes to thank Professor Jule E. Cohen for her invaluable guidance. The author would also like to thank his wife, Midori, and his daughter, Mana, for their love and support. 1. See ERVING GOFFMAN, THE PRESENTATION OF SELF IN EVERYDAY LIFE (1959) (describing how individuals attempt to guide and control the impressions other people form of them); THORSTEIN VEBLEN, THE THEORY OF THE LEISURE CLASS: AN ECONOMIC STUDY OF INSTITUTIONS (A.M. Kelly 1975) (1899) (explaining the evolution of social classes through consumption of goods); see also Malla Pollack, Your Image Is My Image: When Advertising Dedicates Trademarks to the Public Domain – with an Example from the Trademark Counterfeiting Act of 1984, 14 CARDOZO L.
