As sales of fair-trade goods explode across the globe, Fair Trade
and the Citizen-Consumer provides a timely analysis of the
organizations, institutions and grassroots networks behind this
growing movement. Drawing on examples from the UK, Sweden and USA,
this book moves away from models of individualized consumer choice
and instead explores the collective cultures and practices that
motivate and sustain fair-trade consumer behaviour. Although the
fair-trade citizen-consumer has been called to action and publicly
represented as an individual 'voting' in the marketplace, this book
reveals how market interventions are editing the choices available
to consumers, at the same time as 'Fairtrade Town' consumer
networks are flourishing. Offering new and critical insights into
the fair-trade success story, this book also contributes to debates
about sustainable consumption behaviour and the growth of 'new'
forms of political participation and citizenship.
