There has been scant... By 2008, total Fair Trade purchases in the developed world reached nearly $3 billion, a five-fold increase in four years. Consumers pay a -fair pri... |

ISBN: 9780871406897 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It is a prescient fable for our time, one that surprisingly continues to shed light on our modern relationship with China. Indeed, the furious trade in furs, opium, and beche-de-mer a rare sea cucumber delicacy might have catalyzed America s emerging economy, but it also sparked an ecological and human...
