Fair Trade is at a crucial moment in its evolution from alternative trading mechanism to mainstream economic model. This timely and thoughtful book looks at the strategic future for Fair Trade.

Each chapter spearheads a key area of Fair Trade thinking and theory and the political, legal and economic context of Fair Trade is given careful scrutiny. Difficult questions are tackled such as:

  • What is the role and value of corporate social responsibility?
  • What is the brand meaning of Fair Trade?

Throughout, readers are supported by:

  • Revealing case studies and useful data analysis
  • Concise histories of different Fair Trade organisations
  • Chapter summaries and conclusions
