The fair trade scandal : marketing poverty to benefit the rich / Ndongo Samba Sylla ; translated by David Clément Leye.

• On the inequalities of the International Trade System -- The Fair Trade Universe -- Controversies Around Fair Trade -- Redeeming the Free Market as a Solution to Poverty: The Limitations of the FT Economic Model -- Looking for the Global Impact of Fair Trade.

• "This book takes aim at the Fair Trade consumer movement, whih many assume to be entirely benign. Through razor-sharp analysis based on insider knowledge, Ndongo S. Sylla reveals the gap between the rhetoric of Fair Trade and its practical results. Sylla shows empirically that Fair Trade excludes those who need it the most and that its benefits are essentially captured by the wealthiestgroups in the supply chain. Based on his exerience of working for Fairtrade International, Sylla shows the flaws in the Fair Trade system which compromise its ethical mission. This is a provocative and informative exploration of the Fair Trade phenomenon." -- Book jacket.
