In August, 1985, the 2nd International Conference on Illness
Behaviour was held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The first
International Conference took place one year previous in Adelaide,
South Australia, Australia. This book is based on the proceedings
of the second conference. The purpose behind this conference was to
facilitate the development of a single integrated model to account
for illness experience and presentation. A major focus of the
conference was to outline methodological issues related to current
behaviour research. A multidiscipl nary approach was emphasized
because of the bias that collaborative efforts are likely to be the
most successful in achieving greater understanding of illness
behaviour. Significant advances in our knowledge are occurring in
all areas of the biological and social sciences, albeit more slowly
in the latter areas. Marked specialization in each of these areas
has lead to greater difficulty in integrating new knowledge with
that of other areas and the development of a meaningful cohesive
model to which all can relate. Thus there is a major need for
forums such as that provided by this conference.
Framed within the common goal of advancing trade justice and
South-North solidarity, The Fair Trade Handbook presents a broad
interpretation of fair trade and a wide-ranging dialogue between
different viewpoints. Canadian researchers in particular have
advanced a transformative vision of fair trade, rooted in the
cooperative movement and arguing for a more central role for
Southern farmers and workers. Contributors to this book question
the limits of fair trade against the broader structures of the
capitalist, colonialist, racist, and patriarchal global economy.
The debates and discussions are set within a critical development
studies and critical political economy framework. However, this
book will appeal to a wide range of readers, as it translates the
key issues for a popular audience. Includes the graphic story 'a
lively bean that brightens lives'!, by Bill Barrett and Curt
Shoultz
