"This book is a significant contribution to the anthropological case study literature on fair trade that will give yuppies and more redical fair trade consumers, researchers and activists alike something to think about."-Ian Hussey, "Socialist Studies" "A well-written, accessible, nicely balanced series of ethnographic cases--for those of us hungry to know more about the realities of fair trade on the ground, this volume is a nourishing meal of many courses." -Peggy F. Barlett, Goodrich C. White Professor of Anthropology, Emory University "This outstanding collection not only serves as an accessible introduction to Fair Trade but illuminates the gap between the sunny rhetoric and the actual practice. With ethnographic richness and nuance, the authors complicate our understanding of the market as a means of achieving economic and social justice." -Lisa Markowitz, , Associate Professor of Anthropology, University of Louisville
