THE VOICE of the CONSUMER Henry C. Fleisher Public Relations
THE VOICE OF THE CONSU MER Henry c. Fleisher Public Relations Consultant for Consumers Union I'm not sure I know why I'm here. I am not a profess ional "consumer''. My principal experience as a cons ume r is in my role as head of a household •.• a role which both my wife and my children frequently and rather effectively dispute. In my household my wife very early took over the position of purchasing agent, on the accurate basis that I was aware neither of quality nor style nor price. A year ago I bought a secondhand 1952 Chevrolet on the spur of the moment, and in doing so ignored all the 28 tests that Consumers Union recommends to purchasers of used cars. CU was right; I was wrong, •• and I had to get rid of that delightful car at a loss, before the steering apparatus gave both my wife and myself a case of arthritis in the arms. But if my personal function as a consumer is a minor part of my activity, I have nevertheless been watching the American consumer, with a capital "c", during the past several years ••• and I am encouraged by what I see. What I see is fairly steady progress in a direction of a more assertive voice on the part of the Americ~n consumer, a greater sophistication on the part of the consumer in the market place, and the beginnings of better legislative protection for the consumer. It may very well be that I am by nature too optimistic, and that the people working most actively and professionally in the field of consumer activity are able to see in sharper focus the booby traps, the discouraging obstacles, or signs of retrogression. -

Attitude Toward Advertising in General and Attitude Toward a Specific Type
Attitude toward Advertising in General and Attitude toward a Specific Type of Advertising – A First Empirical Approach ▪ Dianoux Christian, Linhart Zdeněk, Vnoučková Lucie Abstract The paper examines based on international research the differences between results of studies focused on consumers’ attitude toward advertising. The aim of this paper is to show that it is possible to find situations where the influence of attitudes towards specific ads in general (ASG) on attitudes toward advertising (Aad) can be observed and also it is possible to find no influence of attitudes toward ads in general (AG) on Aad. The paper shows that the problem comes from the definition of AG. The experiments described in this paper detect attitudinal differences toward advertising in general among studied nations depending on the type of advertising. The research encompasses respondents from three countries with different economic and cultural backgrounds (Germany, Ukraine and USA). The data were collected based on a quantitative survey and experiment among university students. The results show that the concept of AG is in some cases too broad. Differences between AG were confirmed between Ukraine and other countries. The respondents from Germany are according to AG more pessimistic and the respondents from the USA are more optimistic. This disparity was explained by a significant difference in Orthodox and Atheist religion compared to the other religions. Key Words: attitude toward advertising, attitude toward advertising in general, hard and soft sell, religion, Ger- many, Ukraine, USA JEL Classification: M37 1. INTRODUCTION Consumers’ attitudes toward an ad (Aad) have offered a critical theoretical construct since 1981, with the publication of two influential articles (Mitchell & Olson, 1981; Shimp, 1981). -

Volume 5, Issue 1, April 2008 the Black Label: Trade Mark Dilution
Volume 5, Issue 1, April 2008 The Black Label: Trade Mark Dilution, Culture Jamming and the No Logo Movement Matthew Rimmer * * Dr Matthew Rimmer, BA (Hons)/ LLB (Hons) (ANU), PhD (UNSW), is a Senior Lecturer and director of Higher Degree Research at the Australian National University College of Law, and an associate director of the Australian Centre for Intellectual Property in Agriculture (ACIPA). He is grateful for the feedback and comments of the anonymous referees, and Dr Maree Sainsbury of the University of Canberra. He would also like to thank Laugh It Off Promotions for the pictures of the T- Shirts and the legal protests. E-Mail Address: [email protected] (2008) 5:1 SCRIPT-ed 71 Abstract This article considers the ongoing debate over the appropriation of well-known and famous trade marks by the No Logo Movement for the purposes of political and social critique. It focuses upon one sensational piece of litigation in South Africa, Laugh It Off Promotions v. South African Breweries International (Finance) B.V. t/a Sabmark International. In this case, a group called Laugh It Off Promotions subjected the trade marks of the manufacturers of Carling Beer were subjected to parody, social satire, and culture jamming. The beer slogan “Black Label” was turned into a T-Shirt entitled “Black Labour/ White Guilt”. In the ensuing litigation, the High Court of South Africa and the Supreme Court of Appeal were of the opinion that the appropriation of the mark was a case of hate speech. However, the Constitutional Court of South Africa disagreed, finding that the parodies of a well-known, famous trade mark did not constitute trade mark dilution. -
