Political marketing has become established as a specialist academic
field. The aim of this special edition is to publish conceptual and/or
empirical political marketing research, which examines how political
marketing functions in democracies around the World. Papers are invited
which consider aspects of political marketing from the broadly defined
standpoints of: (i) consumer behaviour informed studies into how voters
make political vote decisions (e.g. Ben-Ur & Newman, 2010; Cwalina et
al., 2010; Newman & Sheth, 1985); (ii) how political parties adopt and
implement political marketing strategies, tactics and practices (e.g.
Cosgrove, 2007; O’Cass, 2001; Reeves, 2013); (iii) how political
marketing functions during election campaigns (e.g. Lees-Marshment,
2005; Wring, 2001). The journal is interested in contributions from
political marketing scholars from around the World who can produce
research from a variety of political and electoral contexts.


*Suggested Topics*

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Voters as consumers/ customers.

What factors influence voter choice decisions, and participation in
elections and referenda?

The conceptual foundations of the political vote, and how it is similar
or different to commercial oriented consumer behaviour decisions.

The stages and influences in the political vote decision.

Political marketing strategies, tactics and practices  at strategic
(national) and/ or operational(local) levels

Studies of specific political marketing strategies, tactics and
practices (e.g. segmentation, targeting and positioning, image
management, advertising, e-marketing, social media campaigns and
technology, market research and polling, brand management, internal
political marketing etc)

Analyses of political marketing during elections campaigns (i.e.  EU,
National, Presidential, Parliamentary, State, Regional, Local) or referenda.


If you have any other ideas for papers in the area of political
marketing which do not fit any of the above topics, then you may wish to
email the Guest Editor to discuss your ideas further.
