Summary:

This book pursues a twofold aim: (i) to assess the welfare impacts of either an organic or a Fair Trade certification system, or of both systems in combination, on smallholders in developing countries; and (ii) to examine the willingness of consumers in the developed world to pay for such certified produce. The book consists of 16 chapters, with chapters 6-9 presenting consumer case studies from the developed nations of Europe and the USA and chapters 10-15 presenting producer case studies, especially of smallholder producers from Africa, Asia and Latin America.
