Вербальные инструменты глокализации рекламных трендов (на примере рекламы российских брендов экокосметики)

Abstract

In the paper, on the example of the trend towards environmental friendliness, the specifics of the glocalization of modern advertising trends are considered. The authors proceed from the hypothesis that current social trends exploited by advertising discourse should be subjected to national customization. Glocalization is considered as the only way that ensures the effectiveness of global marketing processes. According to the authors, universal trends in different national linguistic and cultural communities will differ: the dynamics of globalization is constantly reinterpreted at the local level, leading to interpenetration of the global and the local. Thus, in advertising discourse, glocalization becomes a communication strategy that enhances the attractiveness of the product or service being promoted. The study of communication strategies used in the framework of adaptation activities in the foreign market is one of the important aspects of this issue, no less important is the consideration of the process of glocalization of global marketing trends – taking into account the value identity of a particular society. Current world trends at the local level undergo cognitive glocalization, which is objectified in language. In the case of the material selected for analysis (advertising of eco cosmetics), glocalization is carried out at all levels of the advertisement text (naming, the advertisement message itself, information on the package, etc.) through certain language tools. So, among the most frequent ones the authors note the use of place names, an appeal to precedent phenomena, stylization as folk poetic speech and some others, more specific means. The material for the study was the names and logos of Russian brands of natural cosmetics (more than 500), as well as more than 130 advertisement and PR texts that position and promote the products of Russian cosmetic eco-brands. During the study, the following set of methods was used: descriptive, analytical, functional, pragmatic, semiotic, complex intertextual analysis, as well as methods of systematization and classification.
