In the contemporary marketing theoretical discussion there has been a widely established effort to revitalize the concept of service. In this endeavour, conceptual friction between two well-established marketing theoretical logics, namely Service-Dominant logic (S-D logic) and service logic has emerged. Although these perspectives have been widely debated, there have not been systematic efforts to analyse their conceptual differences. Analysing these differences will aid the further development toward more consistent marketing theory. Thus, this study identifies areas of contradiction and complementarity between S-D logic and service logic.
