Change agents are crucial for the promotion of such patterns, so there may be lessons for governance interventions that can be learnt from the every-day experiences of those who actively implement and promote sustainability in the field of anti-consumption. Eighteen social innovation pioneers, who engage in and diffuse practices of voluntary simplicity and collaborative consumption as sustainable options of anti-consumption share their knowledge and personal insights in expert interviews for this research. Our qualitative content analysis reveals drivers, barriers, and governance strategies to strengthen anti-consumption patterns, which are negotiated between the market, the state, and civil society. Recommendations derived from the interviews concern entrepreneurship, municipal infrastructures in support of local grassroots projects, regulative policy measures, more positive communication to strengthen the visibility of initiatives and emphasize individual benefits, establishing a sense of community, anti-consumer activism, and education. We argue for complementary action between top-down strategies, bottom-up initiatives, corporate activities, and consumer behavior. The results are valuable to researchers, activists, marketers, and policymakers who seek to enhance their understanding of materially reduced consumption patterns based on the real-life experiences of active pioneers in the field.}, language = {en} } @incollection{BalderjahnOloko2009, author = {Balderjahn, Ingo and Oloko, Shamsey}, title = {Cause related Marketing in Deutschland : eine kritische Bestandsaufnahme}, series = {Die Moral der Unternehmenskommunikation : lohnt es sich, gut zu sein?}, booktitle = {Die Moral der Unternehmenskommunikation : lohnt es sich, gut zu sein?}, publisher = {Herbert von Halem}, address = {K{\"o}ln}, isbn = {978-3-938258-48-4}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {362 -- 379}, year = {2009}, language = {de} } @incollection{BalderjahnOloko2009, author = {Balderjahn, Ingo and Oloko, Shamsey}, title = {Cause related Marketing als Instrument zur strategischen Unternehmensf{\"u}hrung}, series = {Ganzheitliche Unternehmensf{\"u}hrung in dynamischen M{\"a}rkten : Festschrift f{\"u}r Univ.-Prof. Dr. Armin T{\"o}pfer}, booktitle = {Ganzheitliche Unternehmensf{\"u}hrung in dynamischen M{\"a}rkten : Festschrift f{\"u}r Univ.-Prof. Dr. Armin T{\"o}pfer}, publisher = {Gabler}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-8349-1244-2 (print)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-8349-8787-7_12}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {233 -- 248}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Die weltweite Forderung nach einer Zunahme der gesellschaftlichen Verantwortung der Unternehmen ist in den letzten Jahren {\"u}ber alle Anspruchsgruppen (Stakeholder) hinweg stetig gr{\"o}ßer geworden.1 Die {\"U}bernahme eben dieser Verantwortung findet in dem facettenreichen Begriff der Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) ihren Ausdruck.

Compared with the vast amount of studies concerning environmentally conscious consumer behaviour, relatively little is known about socially conscious consumption. The present paper focuses on fair consumption as an important aspect of social consumption. In our study, consciousness for fair consumption (CFC) is defined as a latent disposition of consumers to prefer products that are produced and traded in compliance with fair labour and business practices. A scale to measure CFC was conceptualized and tested in three independent empirical studies. Two studies were conducted at European universities (2010 and 2012) and used 352 and 362 undergraduate business students respectively. The third study, conducted in 2011, used 141 employees at a European university. The results confirmed the reliability and validity of the new CFC scale across samples. While being moderately related to other aspects of sustainable consumption such as ecological concern and moral reasoning, CFC was significantly distinct from those concepts. Most importantly, it was established that the CFC, as measured by the new CFC scale, is a strong determinant of consumption of fair trade products that has been neglected in existing research.}, language = {en} }
