Philip Kotler, in a speech to the trustees of the Marketing Science Institute, said that the paradigmatic orientation of marketing moves from transactions to relationships to networks [Kotler 1991]. From this perspective, it is worth considering a network approach to marketing developed by Swedish marketing researchers during the last decade. This approach was first presented in two books published in Swedish in 1982 [Hagg and Johanson 1982;Hammarkvist, Hakansson, and Mattsson 1982]. Both groups of authors included members from Uppsala University and the Stockholm School of Economics. A decade later, Swedish researchers are basing a substantial and growing number of studies in marketing and related subjects on the network approach. One can even talk about the evolution of a research tradition, directly and indirectly linked to international research developments, but still based largely in Sweden. This tradition in marketing predates much of the recent surge in network thinking among management and social science researchers.
