Sotelo Duarte M: Nostalgia and Consumer
Behavior

Nostalgia and Consumer Behavior

A Socially Embedded Theory of Memory‑Driven Consumption

An Organizational Zemblanity Framework

Strategic Downgrade of Products and Services

Visionary marketing insider, Christian Muche, Founder of the annual Possible conference, has built his career by turning bold ideas into transformative platforms that shape industries and inspire global audiences. In The Future Possible, Christian shares the latest groundbreaking innovation at the intersection of marketing and technology so that businesses of all types can learn what is needed to succeed over the coming decades.The key themes include: <ul><li>Trust as the primary currency (earned, measured, defended).</li><li>Moments as the flywheel that turns attention into adoption.</li><li>Networks as the distribution logic for ideas, products, and reputation.</li></ul>This is the playbook to building trust-first brands that travel across markets and media. Chapters include executive frameworks that leaders can apply immediately, and a clear way to lead through AI acceleration, cultural volatility, and the post-attention economy without whiplash.

The platform-backed blueprint for building the next generation of market-leading brands.

Leadership, Human Connection, and Creating What Comes Next

The Future Possible

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

How Economists Use Natural Experiments to Decipher Our World

Daughters, Diplomats, and Death

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.

Eight Principles to Craft a More Conscious, Collaborative, and Connected Future

Artisan Economics

A groundbreaking new framework for business leaders and policymakers In Passionomics, Raja Rajamannar introduces an original intellectual framework that equips CEOs, CMOs, strategists, boards, and policymakers with a new lens for driving growth, innovation, and enduring customer loyalty. Where behavioral economics examines how individuals make decisions, Passionomics reveals how collective passion - the synchronized intensity of millions of people acting in concert - moves markets, reshapes industries, and creates extraordinary value for the organizations and institutions that learn to harness it. Rajamannar makes the case through vivid, real-world phenomena every leader recognizes but few have truly decoded: the economic waves generated by a Taylor Swift tour, the industry-wide momentum of Formula 1, the societal mobilization of the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games. These are not anecdotes. They are windows into a dynamic that, once understood, becomes a deliberate strategic advantage - one that transforms how companies build brands, design products, earn loyalty, and compete, and how policymakers shape economies, cities, and public life. Business leaders and policymakers will discover: <ul> <li>A new strategic framework - Passionomics - that explains how collective intensity operates as a distinct and powerful dynamic separate from individual behavior</li> <li>Why passion is a renewable source of innovation, loyalty, and growth - and why the organizations and institutions that ignore it are leaving extraordinary value on the table</li> <li>How to recognize, cultivate, and harness collective passion inside organizations, brands, entire categories, and public institutions</li> <li>Case studies from sports, entertainment, culture, and commerce that reveal the architecture of passion-driven growth</li> <li>A practical lens for boards, CEOs, CMOs, senior leaders, and policymakers who want to move beyond conventional playbooks and unlock step-change performance</li> </ul> Passionomics is essential reading for business leaders and policymakers who sense that something critical is missing from the standard strategic toolkit - and who want a rigorous, original framework for building companies, brands, institutions, and economies that win in ways others cannot replicate.

Why Passion Is the Most Overlooked Advantage in Business

Passionomics

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

Super-Human

This volume – the second in a two-volume work - builds on the foundations established in Volume I by examining advanced applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning in consumer behaviour, marketing analytics and responsible digital commerce.Covering key topics, such as predictive analytics, behavioural economics, machine-learning models, social media analytics, chatbots, virtual assistants and responsible AI in marketing, it discusses how organisations can use consumer data to forecast behaviour, evaluate customer feedback, personalise marketing communication, strengthen engagement and improve strategic decision-making.Chapters reveal how AI can support deeper understanding of consumer choices by combining data science with behavioural insights such as cognitive biases, bounded rationality, heuristics and decision-making patterns. Authors also examine how social media analytics can help entrepreneurs and firms in emerging economies track sentiment, understand market trends and respond more effectively to digital consumers. With an emphasis on ethical and responsible AI, the book addresses privacy, algorithmic bias, transparency, accountability, data protection and consumer trust, showing why AI-driven marketing must be both commercially effective and socially responsible. Taken together, the two volumes explain what cognitive commerce is and how it transforms consumer experiences; it demonstrates how cognitive commerce can be predicted, analysed, managed and implemented responsibly.Reason Masengu

Contributions to Economics

This book is of interest to economists working in applied demand analysis, marketing professionals studying product substitution and complementarity, and policymakers evaluating the effects of taxes, subsidies, and regulatory interventions on consumer behavior. Applying the analytical framework on the internal structure of consumption, this book explores how different categories of consumer spending interact and how these relationships shape the broader structure of consumption.The analyses focus on timely and policy-relevant issues, including the distributional impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, the implementation of safe drinking water standards (with particular attention to low-income households), and the potential effects of carbon taxes on consumer expenditures.A key strength of the framework lies in its ability to derive comprehensive arrays of own- and cross-price elasticities from household expenditure survey data—even in the absence of direct price information.
