Abstract

The research on cause-related marketing (CrM) has evolved and gained more and more interest over the past three decades since its first mention in scientific literature. It is a topic of interest for researchers coming from multiple disciplines like marketing, economics, psychology, and ethics among others. CrM is of interest for many practitioners in the field of marketing and widely used in modern day marketing. The present literature review provides an insight into the current state of the art in the research on CrM. 145 papers published in peer reviewed journals between January 2008 and December 2018 were reviewed. This paper summarizes and discusses the findings and shows gaps in the CrM literature.
