When the Commons call “Enough”, Does Marketing Have an Answer?

Abstract: How we use, or do not use our natural resources is a question that has been debated for millennia. Still an answer remains out of reach. It is a complex issue that often involves a social dilemma known as “the tragedy of the commons”. Many common pool resources, from fish stocks, to forests, to natural tourism destinations have an associated marketing system that may place pressure on the resource. If poorly managed, the resources sustainable future is questionable. This paper explains how commons and strategi… Show more

“…Conceptually, it was important to identify and examine the dynamics of the Sea Change systems likely to be “involved, their interactions and environments” (Duffy, Layton, & Dwyer, 2017, p. 270). A boundary analysis in Sea Change examined the complete system, of which the focal problem, teaching 12- to 19-year-olds about the ocean, is a part.…”

“…The current wave of attention to sustainable development, however, has been accompanied by a growing recognition that many of the natural resources that are currently available are likely to become scarce (Hult, 2011;Kotler, 2011). The causes of natural-resource depletion are largely attributed to industrial users driven by market demand (e.g., Duffy et al, 2017;Witkowski, 2005). As a result, the depletion of natural resources is often regarded as an ancillary environmental cost of marketing that, in practice, largely focuses on enlarging and satisfying the needs and wants of customers, rather than on reducing environmental effects (Kjellberg, 2008;Kotler, 2011;Witkowski, 2005).…”

“…One important contribution of this study is therefore the suggestion that, in addition to helping businesses to thrive, market knowledge can also help businesses to adapt their value-creation processes in response to changes in the natural environment. Such adjustments are essential to balancing business practices with the need to pursue sustainability (Duffy et al, 2017;Kotler, 2011).…”
