Despite the occasionally extremely genuine interest in customer service, the provision of goods and services at affordable costs to the population and the implementation of efficient sponsorships to push them to purchase merchandise that best suits their wants, desires and needs, Marketing has not been able for a long time to escape the accusation of being morally, socially and ethically unsuccessful in some respects. Marketers usually express their goals and objectives regarding customer satisfaction, their corporate social responsibility and ethics programs, about building intimate relationships with their customer base, but these observations are challenged through examination critical and have since been established to have many shortcomings (Tadajewski, 2010). .Critical theory and marketing Critical theory implies liberation, the absolution of the character from the control of economic domination (Fromm, 2005). In an economic, political and social environment in which big business and normally many of the most adept marketing-practicing companies come under scrutiny, an extremely energetic society of students, professionals and scholars has emerged who show interest in critical marketing studies.
