Branded Liberalistic

Nationalistic pride and equality is used to create loyal product communities

Implications - The concepts of patriotism and pride are being adopted by American and European brands as a means to equate product consumption with loyal duty. Also taking the liberal notions of feminism and activism in stride, the campaigns and promotions utilize a strong sense of community to effectively speak to individualistic consumers that are connected digitally, but feel a strong disconnect from their fellow countrymen and women.

  2. Consumer Products — Consumer brands can use nationalistic pride to create loyal product communities and promote their products through emotional associations with patriotic moments.
