Journal of Macromarketing. 027614672211075-027614672211075.0276-14671552-6534https://hdl.handle.net/10092/103948This paper examines how the Government of India (GOI) used macrosocial marketing (MSM) to address the issues of clean cooking fuel accessibility and affordability and structural inequalities in subsidy redistribution. It highlights a novel MSM application to address chrematistics in marketing systems. Two initiatives established by the GOI are examined. “Give It Up” encourages wealthier households to surrender liquid petroleum gas (LPG) subsidies, leaving these to poorer families, and Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY) installs LPG connections for poor, rural women. The research explores how the GOI has addressed economic inefficiencies and structural inequalities, focusing on institutional norms and affordability, accessibility, awareness, and acceptability (the “4As”). The research expands the theoretical boundaries of MSM in relation to poverty and identifies its capacity to affect individual and systemic change through formal and informal institutional changes. Although new institutional norms were adopted, PMUY could not address the ongoing affordability of LPG, despite the changes to LPG subsidies.enAll rights reserved unless otherwise statedJournal Article2022-06-22Fields of Research::35 - Commerce, management, tourism and services::3506 - Marketing::350612 - Social marketingFields of Research::38 - Economics::3801 - Applied economics::380105 - Environment and resource economicshttp://doi.org/10.1177/02761467221107556
