Consumer Culture Research in JCR: Our List
Below, we offer a collection of Consumer Culture Theory (CCT) focused articles published in the Journal of Consumer Research that we frequently draw upon in our own PhD-level teaching, mentoring, and workshop practice.
While we believe that this list is of value to PhD students and colleagues in core disciplines as well as other marketing and consumer research subfields, we caution readers not to approach this overview as a straight-up representation of the disciplinary status quo. Rather, our goal is to present an assortment of key theoretical contributions found in JCR.
We encourage readers to use these papers merely as starting points for a more in-depth exploration of classic and contemporary CCT scholarship across a variety of important research outlets.
Other outlets to explore include, but are not limited to, the Journal of Marketing, the Journal of Marketing Research, the Journal of Marketing Management, Consumption, Markets, and Culture, Marketing Theory and the Journal of Contemporary Ethnography.
