  • VI. Fallstudien Zur Imagewerbung Japanischer Unternehmen
    317 Kapitel VI. Fallstudien zur Imagewerbung japanischer Unternehmen In diesem Kapitel werden anhand verschiedener Fallstudien exemplarische Beispiele für kreative Unternehmenswerbung (kigyô kôkoku oder Corporate Advertising) vorgestellt. Dabei geht es darum, einen möglichst vielseitigen Eindruck langfristig imagebildender Werbestrategien zu geben, wobei die damit zusammenhängenden Faktoren wie Marketing und Corporate Identity (CI) nach Möglichkeit einbezogen werden. Um diesen Zusammenhang zu verdeutlichen, wird zuerst eine allgemeine Einordnung von Corporate Advertising (im folgenden CA) bzw. Corporate Communications (CC, Unternehmens- kommunikation) im Gesamtkonzept von Corporate Identity (Unternehmensidentität) vorge- nommen. Daran anschließend werden der japanische CA-Begriff, bzw. die Entwicklung japanischer CI und CC-Strategien erläutert. Eine Betrachtung des Unternehmens-images als zentraler Bezugsgröße von CA-Maßnahmen und ein allgemeiner Überblick zu CA- Entwicklung und Status quo runden diesen „Vorspann” ab, bevor es konkret an die unter- suchten Beispiele geht. 1. Corporate Identity-Strategien und Imagewerbung in japanischen Unternehmen In der BRD sind Theorie und Praxis der Corporate Identity (CI) seit den 70er Jahren ein wissenschaftliches Thema. Grage (1993) führt den Begriff auf Durckheim zurück, der Identität als „das unverwechselbare Sein, die charakteristische Eigenart und Einmaligkeit einer Person“1 definiert. Die Übertragung individueller Eigenschaften auf Gruppen bzw. Unter-nehmen ist zwar ambivalent zu betrachten,
