Abstract: In this paper we showed that market<strong>in</strong>g is responsible for<br />
serv<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>in</strong>terests <strong>of</strong> the society. Initially, market<strong>in</strong>g was condemned for<br />
<strong>in</strong>stigat<strong>in</strong>g to socially adverse behaviors. Nowadays, the reputation <strong>of</strong><br />
market<strong>in</strong>g is restored, as <strong>public</strong> decision-makers discovered the<br />
importance <strong>of</strong> market<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> generat<strong>in</strong>g desirable <strong>public</strong> behaviors.<br />
Market<strong>in</strong>g techniques can be used successfully to produce the <strong>in</strong>tended<br />

1. Introduction<br />
Famous Scottish pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> moral philosophy, Adam Smith, was among the<br />
first to be clear and plausible if the moral and honest <strong>in</strong>dividuals pursu<strong>in</strong>g their own<br />
<strong>in</strong>terests, are work<strong>in</strong>g to the benefit society as a whole. Perfection requires a difficult<br />
process <strong>of</strong> creation, also a 'struggle' with the producer <strong>of</strong> raw materials to facilitate new<br />
goods, new services and experiences. Of tobacco products, services, porn, firearms and<br />
chemical warfare agents can be both legal and market goods and also pr<strong>of</strong>itable, but<br />
they are the most dubious social value and also the 'pure' goods or means <strong>of</strong> decivilization.<br />
The market should systematically respond to requests emanat<strong>in</strong>g from the<br />
non-economic environment (Ionescu, 2006). Values should govern our personality and<br />
actions. Crisis is the symptom <strong>of</strong> modernity, among others, and moral crisis. Economic<br />
development and <strong>in</strong>dustrialization have led to a deepen<strong>in</strong>g crisis. Marketers are <strong>in</strong> a<br />
position to address the follow<strong>in</strong>g issues relat<strong>in</strong>g to:<br />
Privacy: all <strong>in</strong>formation and seek to protect our own existence <strong>in</strong> the current<br />
century <strong>in</strong> which we are assaulted 24 hours from 24 media outlets, telephones, e / spam,<br />
banner ads on the Internet, etc (Bird, 2007).<br />
Debt: we are all encouraged and helped to spend more, we buy luxury products,<br />
giv<strong>in</strong>g us the conditions (<strong>in</strong> Romania deceptively…casual payment).<br />
Natural Environment: huge quantities from packag<strong>in</strong>g, especially plastic,<br />
acquisition excess product and pollution are a direct consequence <strong>of</strong> consumerism.<br />
