Farmers of the Golden Bean: Costa Rican Households in the Global Coffee Economy - Paperback
by Deborah Sick (Author)
Sick explores contemporary issues of gender, empowerment, access to resources, and fair trade as she examines how Costa Rican coffee-producing households cope with the complexities of a globalizing world economy. Using a commodity approach, she integrates household, regional, and global processes. Farmers of the Golden Bean challenges previous assumptions about the nature of economic change and the sustainability of household producers in the global economy.
