Abstract
This paper presents a unifying framework for the analysis of distribution channels which encompasses both economic and sociopolitical determinants of channel member behavior and provides a suitable departure point for comparative work. The framework integrates present approaches to the study of marketing channels and provides an essential, but heretofore missing, basis for comprehensive empirical research in the area.
