Conference on Historical Analysis and Research in Marketing (CHARM)

1 to 4 June 2023, Duke University, Durham, NC

Submission Deadline: 26 November 2022

Direct your submission to the Program Chair: CHARM2023Submissions@gmail.com

We invite business, marketing, social science, and humanities scholars from all backgrounds to join us at Duke University for a friendly, collegial, and interdisciplinary research conference focused on the history of marketing and advertising. We call on scholars from around the globe to explore the theme of this year’s conference, based on the motto of North Carolina, esse quam videri, to be rather than to seem. The motto is drawn from Marcus Tullius Cicero’s essay, How to Be a Friend (De Amicitia), which is very appropriate, because this is the ethos of CHARM.

Both individual papers and panels on all aspects of marketing history, historic marketing, and the history of marketing thought in all geographic areas and all historical time frames are welcome. In accord with the Conference theme, we welcome papers that both examine the history of marketing as a discipline and also critically draw on marketing as a source in reconstructing the past. Topics may include but are not exclusively restricted to the following:

·ÌýÌý Marketing pioneers

·ÌýÌý Histories of the development and evolution of the marketing discipline

·ÌýÌý Varieties of marketing cultures and histories

·ÌýÌý Writing the past: constructing histories in/for marketing

·ÌýÌý Exploring the historical role of relationships and networks in marketing;

·ÌýÌý Historical Marketing in the projection of national and regional identities

·ÌýÌý History and Marketing research
·ÌýÌý Marketing history “from below” – how consumers and citizens respond to and interact with firms and brands
·ÌýÌý Advertising history
·ÌýÌý Distribution and packaging history
·ÌýÌý Sector case studies with historical focus, for example beauty and fashion marketing, transportation, leisure, etc.

·ÌýÌý Histories of branding and brand development

We also encourage historical submissions that discuss methodological, pedagogical and historiographical questions in marketing.

Address any proposals for special sessions or panels directly to the Program Chair for more information.
