Consumption, Markets and Culture. Eds.-in-Chief, Alladi Venkatesh and A. Fuat Firat.
"An outlet for the rich but largely unrepresented critical and groundbreaking scholarship which focuses on consumerism and the market as the site of social behavior, representation and discourse, Consumption, Markets and Cultures encourages interdisciplinary discussion in the areas of consumer culture, consumption, colonialism, globalization, communications, marketing, management, cultural studies and labor conditions. Combining theories of culture, media, gender and anthropology with methods of analyses in literary criticism, semiology and business management, the journal is international in its scope while being critical, challenging and iconoclastic in its aims."

Cultural Studies <-> Critical Methodologies. Ed. Norman K. Denzin. Sage.
"focus[es] on the intersection between cultural studies and research methods addressing specific methodological and interpretive frameworks and publishing peer reviewed research articles, critical analyses of contemporary media representations, autoethnography, poetry, and creative non-fiction."

Journal of Consumer Culture. Eds. George Ritzer and Don Slater. Sage.
"...groundbreaking debates and articles that focus on consumption and consumer culture. Global in perspective and drawing on both theory and empirical research, the journal reflects the need to engage critically with modern consumer culture and to understand its central role in contemporary social processes."

Journal of Consumer Research. University of Chicago.
"...scholarly research aimed at describing and explaining consumer behavior, in the broadest sense of the term. Empirical, theoretical, and methodological articles spanning fields such as psychology, marketing, sociology, economics, and anthropology are featured in this interdisciplinary quarterly. The primary thrust of JCR is academic, rather than managerial, with topics ranging from micro-level processes (e.g., brand choice) to more macro-level issues (e.g., the development of materialistic values)."

Journal of Research for Consumers.
"A Web-based interdisciplinary journal publishing consumer research that furthers the interests of consumers through information provision and theoretical advancements. Empirical, theoretical, and methodological articles are featured, along with commentaries and essays that seek to further consumers' understanding of the consumption process and its many implications. The Journal is a "free-to-air" online-only journal."

Journal of Economic Psychology
"..."Invites submissions of psychologically oriented manuscripts on consumers, commodities, and consumption."

Marketing Theory. Eds.-in-Chief, Dawn Burton and Barbara Stern. Sage.
"...provides a specialised academic medium and main reference for the development and dissemination of alternative and critical perspectives on marketing theory." The journal publishes theory papers and speculative essays, review articles and theoretically grounded methodology and empirical articles.
