Fair Trade promises to raise living standards in developing countries through:
- worldwide minimum prices for commodities
- support for democratically governed cooperatives
- requirement of minimum wages and safety standards for workers
- training to help producers improved quality and develop business skills
- encouragement of eco-friendly practices
- third-party certification
In contrast to the free trade status quo, Fair Trade relies on informed consumers to choose more direct supply chains that minimize the role of middlemen, offering economic justice and social change as a viable and sustainable alternative to charity. But does it work?
Fair Trade from the Ground Up documents achievements at both the producer and the consumer ends of commodity chains and assesses prospects for future growth. From Guatemalan coffee farmers to student activists on U.S. college campuses, the stories of individuals inform April Linton's analysis. Drawing on studies by social scientists and economists, as well as on new case studies, she provides balanced answers to hard questions: How can large institutions be persuaded to commit to using Fair Trade suppliers? Does ethical consumerism work? Are the "social premiums" that are built into Fair Trade prices really being used for community projects? Will Fair Trade market growth reach the scale of organics or green products? This book meets a long-felt need among economic-justice activists, consumer groups, and academics for a reliable qualitative and quantitative overview of achievements of the Fair Trade movement.

Seventeen-year-old Cleo Porter begins her senior year hiding behind her camera, taking pictures of a world of which she's not really a part.
Too loud and much too tall, Bebe Blattner bursts into Cleo's life. She lives every day to its fullest - as if it's her last. Over the course of one fateful year imprisoned in their private Christian school, the girls unite against cruel rumors and tragic news, growing increasingly closer. A bond is formed that will change the course of both their lives.
But the future is not always bright. Fate is not always kind. The values you are taught as a child might not always stand the trials of growing up. The people you care about most might not always be with you. What matters is how we can best live each day - and how to keep going when the unthinkable happens.
A heartwarming novel of nostalgia, of family we're born into and family we choose, of the ways in which we grow and leave things behind. Can Cleo emerge whole on the other side of the summer between?

On March 31st, 1972, Christopher St. George was born to hardworking parents in a small farming community in southern Minnesota. After high school he joined the United States Marine Corps, went to boot camp and, immediately after, to officer training. Life was good. Then he was ordered to war.
After being deployed to foreign land after foreign land, he had had enough. He could no longer fight for something he didn't absolutely believe in. He was done. Instead of remaining back at base barking out orders via radio while others fought and died, he led his men into battle. Christopher St. George died that day. He was 35 years old. John Nolan was born.
A Soul for Sale depicts the life of this man. To get there he traveled a long hard road, and now is the time for this journey to end so he can begin the next one.
