Abstract

Discusses the perceived gap between theory and practice in the discipline of marketing. Asserts that the gap between the worlds of academia and practice is increasing and this is due to marketing academics not really being interested in its practice. Considers that many view marketing as a means of undertaking research in areas of their own theoretical interest.
