“…In the eyes of the municipality, this makes the mint vendors illegal public space users, even if the good they are selling – fresh, green mint used in cooking and for thé à la menthe (mint tea), a North African green tea with fresh mint and sugar – is legal foodstuff also sold by supermarkets and grocers. The constant stream of clients suggest that the mint vendors are both accepted as a stable facet of market life and provide a needed service not met by formal vendors (see also Cross ; Chang and Hsieh ), making them, in the vocabulary of Meneses‐Reyes and Caballero‐Juárez (), informal public space users who are challenging the ability of the city of Montpellier to set the terms of public space usage.…”

Focusing on street-side vending of fresh mint and herbs in the French city of Montpellier, this paper considers the difference between illegal and informal vending, and the regulatory mechanisms deployed by municipal and police actors in the push to eradicate illegality. Drawing on municipal archives from the late 1990s, and interviews and city documents from the 2000s, I examine the relationship between regularised market stall holders and those selling goods outside assigned vending spaces, with a particular interest in how these two groups interact, and the instances in which police and market officials are called. Through a rapidly escalating campaign to fight illegality, green fresh mint is coded as an illicit product and the individuals who sell it are targeted as dangerous criminal elements.

The respondents were selected using a convenience sample with the intention of performing demographic analysis to determine market representation (Hussein Abdulla ElOmari, 2007;Chang, 2006;Duguay, et al, 2003;Cropley, et al, 2002).

Persuasive messages for marketing healthcare services in general and coordinated care in particular are more important now for providers, hospitals, and third-party payers than ever before. The combination of measurement based information with creativity may be among the most critical factors in reaching markets or expanding markets. The research presented here provides an approach to marketing coordinated care services which allows healthcare managers to plan persuasive messages given the market conditions they face. Using market respondents' thinking about product attributes combined with distance measurement between pairs of product attributes, a conceptual marketing map is presented and applied to advertising, message copy, and delivery. The data reported here are representative of the potential caregivers for which the messages are intended. Results are described with implications for application to coordinated care services. Theory building and marketing practice are discussed in the light of findings and methodology.
