National Seminar

on
Globalization, Industrialization and Consumerism
- Issues and Prospects

(July 22 - 23, 2011)

SEMINAR REPORT

The world economy has become increasingly globalized, having in turn,


has had a significant impact on economies all over the world, especially on
management perspectives in the developing economies like India .The rapid
changes in information and communication technologies especially in last two
decades have made the world a seamless place. The impact of this change has
transformed the society into an integrated and networked society, where each
one’s actions impacts that of others – whether it is in terms of flow of capital,
ideas, business practices, job opportunities or forging strategic alliances.
Simultaneously, increasing penetration of mass media and development of e-
learning resources has slowly brought into the mainstream those consumers who
were totally excluded from the fruits of economic development. This can be seen
in terms of burgeoning opportunities in the rural markets of India, emerging
economies and rapid opportunities in the other developing economies of the
world.

Marketing as a business function is undergoing major transformation due


to the challenges posed by an informed customer, hyper competition, low
differentiated products and services, increasing buying power of the middle class,
a value-for-money seeking customer, growing influence of children in decision
making, emergence of new economic powerhouses, changing lifestyle and
attitude of consumers, growth of service industry, changing demographic profiles
of the emerging economies and developed nations and many more- the list is
endless .
The Seminar on Globalization, Industrialization and Consumerism: Issues
and Prospects was organized by the Centre for Consumer Studies, Indian
Institute of Public Administration, New Delhi in collaboration with the School of
Commerce, Bharathiar University, Coimbatore with and sponsored by the
Department of Consumer Affairs, Government of India. The National Seminar
provided a platform where new concepts and trends in marketing were
discussed. The broad objectives of the seminar are as follows

Seminar Objectives
1. To provide a platform where academicians, and researchers share and
discuss the contemporary issues and challenges in the changing consumer
context.

2. To share scholarly research on emerging opportunities and threats in the


changing market context.

3. To analyze and understand the underlying behavioral changes among


consumers leading to the emergence of more demanding and savvy
customers.

Inaugural Session

The Inaugural session began with a welcome Address by Prof. G. Ganesan,


Professor and Head, School of Commerce, Bharathiar University. He gave a brief
outline about the objectives of the seminar and urged the participants to take
active part in the deliberations. He also thanked the Centre for Consumer
Studies, IIPA for their support in organizing the Seminar

In her introductory remarks Dr. M. Sumathy, Reader, School of
Commerce, Bharathiar University and the Seminar coordinator said that
consumerism is a process through which the consumers seek redress, restitution
and remedy for their dissatisfaction and frustration with the help of their
organised and unorganised efforts and activities. It is in fact a social movement
seeking to protect the rights of the consumers in relation to the producers and
providers of services.

Dr. M. Sumathy, Seminar Coordinator introducing the theme

In its wider perspective it is an item on the agenda of administrative


reforms for greater accountability, responsiveness and transparency through the
technique of decentralisation, debureaucratisation and devolved planning
process. It’s a part of the ongoing debate for good governance which recognises
the Right to Information as a prerequisite. In many of the developed countries
consumerism has over the time developed into a sound force designed to aid
and protect the consumer by exerting legal, moral and economic pressure on
producers and providers of services.

In his Presidential Address Shri Ramjibhai B. Mavani, Ex-M.P. Lok Sabha


and Founder President, Rajkot Saher Jilla Grahak Suraksha Mandal, Rajkot,
Gujarat, said that Globalization poses four major challenges that will have to be
addressed by governments, civil society, and other policy actors.

Shri Ramjibhai Mavani, Former Member of Parliament delivering the
Presidential address

To ensure that the benefits of globalization extend to all countries it is


important to have some safeguards as well. But this will not happen
automatically as there is a fear in the developed countries that globalization will
lead to instability. The challenge is to address the very real fear in the industrial
world that increased global competition loading to inexorably race to the bottom
in wages, labor rights, employment practices, and the environment and
globalization. However all these excuses must not be used to avoid looking for
new ways for cooperation in the overall interest of countries and people? He also
called upon the experts and policy makers to understand the problems being
faced by the consumers and draw out strategies to protect the consumers.

On the occasion a book titled “ Globalization and Consumerism -Issues


and Challenges” authored by Shri Ganesan and Sumathy Mohan was released
by Col. Dr. C. Swaminathan, Vice Chancellor, Bharathiar University. Delivering
the inaugural address he said that Liberalisation, Privatisation and Globalisation
concepts have occupied a predominant place in the minds of the people today.
Modernisation and technology are the words of mantra of even a common man.
We find that technology has played a great role in the systematic development of

4
the nation building activities. BASEL II talks of capital adequacy requirements
and RBI has taken measures to keep the Indian banks globally active. Monetary
policies, regulatory measures, NPA norms all speak volumes of development of
the banking system as a whole towards globalisation. World economy has to be
carefully studied and watched. We may have to fine tune our systems and
procedures in this direction.

He added that every industry talks on globalisation. For instance, take


plantation industry. In the recent press reports it is mentioned that Ms. Sheela
Thomas, Chair Person of Indian Rubber Board has been elected as the new
Chair Person of International Rubber Study Group. Members opined that India
being both producer and consumer of rubber would be in a good position to
protect the interests of both producers and consumers in IRSG. This is one
example on globalistaion and consumer issue in rubber industry.

There are a number of other issues that needs immediate attention to


protect the interests of the consumers and such seminars play a important role in
looking for solutions to such problems. I wish the Seminar a success and hope
the deliberations will be useful.

The Keynote address was delivered by Prof. Suresh Misra, Chair


Professor & Coordinator, Centre for Consumer Studies. Prof. Misra, said that
globalization has changed the way we think and live. The world is moving
towards a mono culture as a result of globalization. The markets have expended

5
beyond nations. But the consumer protection laws have limited jurisdiction and
cannot cope up with new problems due to globalization and use of technology.
He also stressed that Law can only protect the consumers through rules, which
are essentially national and which can only be enforced within a national
framework.
