The Fire of Desire: A Multisited Inquiry into Consumer Passion
Open accessAbstract
Desire is the motivating force behind much of contemporary consumption. Yet, consumer research has devoted little specific attention to passionate and fanciful consumer desire. This paper is grounded in consumers' everyday experiences of longing for and fantasizing about particular goods. Based on journals, interviews, projective data, and inquiries into daily discourses in three cultures (the U.S., Turkey, and Denmark), we develop a phenomenological account of desire. We find that desire is regarded as a powerful cyclic emotion that is both discomforting and pleasurable. Desire for desire, hope for hope, self-seduction, and tensions between seduction and morality are the forces that we find underlie desire and its pursuit. We discuss theoretical implications of these processes for consumer research.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
