In this paper, the authors explore the role of context in service provision and, more broadly, in market co-creation, and discuss how these market levels influence one another, and conceptualize markets as simultaneous, continuous exchanges that are bounded by each of these levels of context.
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to explore the role of context in service provision and, more broadly, in market co-creation. We oscillate foci from an individual actor at the micro level to a market at the macro level to make the scaleable influence of context more salient. This reveals the meso level, which is nestled between the micro and macro levels. We discuss how these market levels influence one another. We conceptualize markets as simultaneous, continuous exchanges that are bounded by each of these levels of context.

Institutions and axioms: an extension and update of service-dominant logic

TL;DR: In this paper, an eleventh foundational premise (fifth axiom) is introduced, focusing on the role of institutions and institutional arrangements in systems of value cocreation: service ecosystems.

The iron cage revisited: Institutional isomorphism and collective rationality in organizational fields (Chinese Translation)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that rational actors make their organizations increasingly similar as they try to change them, and describe three isomorphic processes-coercive, mimetic, and normative.

Critical service logic: making sense of value creation and co-creation

TL;DR: The authors analyzes value creation and co-creation in service by analytically defining the roles of the customer and the firm, as well as the scope, locus, and nature of value and value creation.

Service innovation: a service-dominant logic perspective

TL;DR: A broadened view of service innovation is offered--one grounded in service-dominant logic--that transcends the tangible--intangible and producer--consumer divides that have plagued extant research in this area.

The Role of Customer Engagement Behavior in Value Co-Creation A Service System Perspective
