Abstract

The exciting new wave of Global brand culture and consumerism embodies the modern-day phenomenon of collective individualism and hybrid personalities – which connects people across nationalities and ethnicities using the language of brands. This article highlights some of the key trends and offers further insight, from a branding and anthropological perspective.
