Toward a Better Understanding of the Role of Value in Markets and Marketing (Review of Marketing Research)

In their 2004 article 'Evolving to a new dominant logic for marketing,' Vargo and Lusch established the related principles that value is always co-created and, thus, firms cannot deliver value, but only develop compelling value propositions. This perspective is now known as 'service-dominant (S-D) logic.' Subsequent S-D logic work has suggested that value is not only always co-created; it also requires the integration of resources from multiple sources and thus is contextually contingent, since each instance of value creation involves the availability, integration, and use of a different combination of resources. This repositioning of value, from a static concept of something embedded in the output of a 'producer' to be 'consumed,' to a dynamic concept of a co-created outcome in ever-changing, networked systems, can be seen throughout the manuscripts in this volume.
