Drawing on 20 years of ethnographic fieldwork and anthropological theory, anthropologist Brian Moeran argues that fashion magazines are able to cast a spell over their readers by using practices and rituals found in age-old magical and religious rites.
Brian Moeran is Professor of Business Anthropology at the Copenhagen Business School, Denmark. He has conducted decades of research on creative industries-including advertising, art marketing, ceramics, fashion, incense, and publishing-mainly in Japan. He is founding editor of the Open Access Journal of Business Anthropology and author or editor of 20 books, including A Japanese Advertising Agency (University of Hawai'i Press, 1996), The Business of Ethnography (Berg, 2005); Negotiating Values in the Creative Industries (Cambridge University Press, 2011), and The Business of Creativity: Toward an Anthropology of Worth (Left Coast Press, 2013).
