In particular Terence Turner explain the fight of the Kayapò against the project of Belo Monte. But there are a lot of interesting texts and who he's: http://anthropology.cornell.edu/faculty/Terence-Turner.cfm<br />maybe you know already taht and more, if not <br />I leave you this link too: <br />http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-8322.2006.00458.x/abstract;jsessionid=9E5843E309A8D6D9D0A723FEB7C44DCA.d01t04<br /><br />see you soon!<br />ciao<br />FrancescaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1814213305251533629.post-51239060693578072222011-03-30T15:26:08.163-07:002011-03-30T15:26:08.163-07:00Hi Jess! Thanks for the compliment. :-)
Hi Dan!...Hi Jess! Thanks for the compliment. :-)<br /><br />Hi Dan! Thanks for the question. :-)<br /><br />The two are indeed related. You could say that colectivos are the engines that drive the market-based concept of fair trade. <br /><br />For the system of fair trade to function, it needs to appeal to three separate actors – the producer, the buyer, and the consumer. The producer needs a fair price for the coffee, allowing him or her to maintain an adequate standard of living. The buyer needs a fair price that is not prohibitively costly, so that the buyer can stay in business. The consumer needs a fair price that allows the coffee to be bought and enjoyed without simultaneously being a financial burden.<br /><br />Thus, the colectivos are the groups in charge of setting these prices. Members of the colectivos meet to discuss the factors that might influence the price – the availability or scarcity of coffee, the likelihood of a good or bad harvest, the price of seeds, etc. After discussing these factors, a colectivo sets the price at which their members agree to sell their coffee. This process allows the farmers to set forth a price they believe is both fair for their community and appealing to buyers and consumers.<br /><br />This differs from a non-fair trade form of doing business. Outside of the fair trade system, the producer is not consulted about the coffee’s selling price. Rather, the market determines at what price the coffee will be sold. In comparison, inside the fair trade system, the producer has the ability to decide the selling price for the coffee, granting the producer more control over the actual product and the producer’s livelihood.<br /><br />Hope this answers your question!14 Pesosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1814213305251533629.post-45799209750929168002011-03-30T13:36:17.278-07:002011-03-30T13:36:17.278-07:00are colectivos related to fair trade?are colectivos related to fair trade?Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1814213305251533629.post-65343365124321342072011-03-07T10:07:29.822-08:002011-03-07T10:07:29.822-08:00Great post Natalie!
