Looks at the strategic future for Fair Trade. This book tackles questions such as 'What is the role and value of corporate social responsibility?' It includes case studies and data analysis as well as histories of different Fair Trade organisations. It also features chapter summaries and conclusions.
′Today, Fair Trade finds itself at a crucial point in its evolution from alternative trading mechanism to a mainstream economic model. As the only certifier in the largest Fair Trade market in the world, TransFair USA has observed the explosive growth in consumer awareness and business interest in Fair Trade certification. New research into the progress of Fair Trade to date and, crucially, its key future directions is urgently needed. Fair Trade is therefore a valuable and timely contribution.The range and depth of the book is considerable. It is international in outlook and engages with a broad spectrum of theory and thinking. Its style is approachable yet rigorous. I would strongly recommend it to industry, academics, students, policy-makers and the interested reader in general′

-Paul Rice, CEO, TransFair USA

-Hamish Renton, Product Manager Food You Can Trust, Tesco
