building a better world, together

"Framed within the common goal of advancing trade justice and South-North solidarity The Fair Trade Handbook presents a broad interpretation of fair trade and a wide-ranging dialogue between different viewpoints. Canadian researchers in particular have advanced a transformative vision of fair trade, rooted in the cooperative movement and arguing for a more central role for Southern farmers and workers. Contributors to this book question the limits of fair trade against the broader structures of the global economy rooted in capitalism, colonialism, racism, and patriarchy. This book will appeal to a wide range of readers translating the key issues and debates from leading fair trade researchers to a popular audience. The debate and discussion is set within critical development studies and critical political economy framework."--, Provided by publisher
