In contrast to most studies and practices of place branding, this article is based on the assumption that branding is not about identifying the essence or DNA of a place, but about constructing powerful narratives that create meanings, which address consumers’ self-fashioning and lifestyle needs according to their specific cultural contexts. Hence, meaning is not immanent in a place or nation. Meaning is constructed by narratives that create order and coherence in an otherwise chaotic and fragmented world.
