Abstract
Purpose:
To debate the nature and purpose of marketing scholarship in light of the social business agenda.
Design:
Since the standard academic article is part of marketing's 'problem', a pseudoSocratic dialogue is employed as an alternative to the clichéd conventions of scholarly communication.
Findings:
The authors fail to agree, let alone agree to disagree, on marketing scholarship in a social business-steeped setting.
Limitations and implications:
The unconventional – be it in terms of content or form or both – tends to be dismissed out of hand by hidebound traditionalists. But if no one is bothering to read conventional academic articles, perhaps their hidebound form is as much to blame as their turgid content.
Contribution:
In the process of challenging one another, the authors challenge academic communication conventions.
