No alternative: Participation, inequality, and the meanings of fair trade in Nicaragua / Participation, inequality, and the meanings of fair trade in NicaraguaFisher, Joshua B., 1981- 03 1900 (has links)
xvi, 411 p. : ill., maps. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. / This dissertation research takes an ethnographic perspective on competing notions of "fairness" in the first vertically-integrated garment production chain in the world that is certified as fair trade. In sharp contrast to the straightforward images of social justice that are so common on the consumer end of fair trade, the dissertation demonstrates that relations of fair trade production, distribution, and consumption are complicated by ideological disjunctures, by different experiences of work and labor, by unequal access to capital and political opportunity, by asymmetrical power, and ultimately by disparate concepts of economic justice.
Organized as a commodity chain analysis, this dissertation is based on sixteen months of multi-sited, ethnographic research in Nicaragua, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), with four separate fair trade organizations: a faith-based NGO from North Carolina called the Center for Sustainable Development, a well-known Michigan-based fair trade retailer called Clean Clothes Organics, and two Nicaraguan producer organizations, including a women's industrial sewing cooperative (The Fair Trade Zone, which is the first worker-owned organization in the world to gain free trade zone customs certification), and an industrial cotton spinning plant called Genesis. The research shows that, from the standpoint of production and distribution, conflicts frequently emerge over the terms, conditions, and meanings of labor, business contracts, extra-contractual relations, participation in decision-making, and the definition of roles. Producers, moreover, often have no alternative but to accept the terms of more powerful groups under duress of poverty.
Theoretically speaking, this dissertation contributes to an understanding of alternative economic formations, including fair trade and cooperatives. In this vein, I argue that the idea of fair trade as an "alternative" to conventional trade is a problematic rhetorical move that tends to obscure the fact that all aspects of trade--production, distribution, and consumption--are not only inherently political, they are also riven with the complications of mediating between disparate cultural meanings, social positionalities, and political, economic, and social inequality. I recommend revisioning the relationship between the economy, the state, and various spheres of society in light of the insights of substantivist economics, feminist political economy, and ethnography. / Committee in charge: Lynn Stephen, Chairperson, Anthropology;

Control of mergers between newspaper enterprises under South African and German competition lawJanka, Sebastian Felix 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (LLM)--University of Stellenbosch, 2005. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis compares South African and German Competition Law. The focus is the control
of mergers between newspaper enterprises. It has to be asked whether special rules
should apply to transactions in this field, considering the importance of an unconcentrated,
competitive press from an economic and political point of view. It will be shown that South
African and German Competition Law are similar in many respects. Both legal systems
follow a flexible, primarily economic approach to the consideration of proposed transactions,
taking into account a plurality of factors to determine potential detrimental effects of
mergers on competition. Moreover, pro-competitive gains and public interest issues are
recognised under South African and German law. When it comes to the control of mergers
between newspaper enterprises, though, the two legal systems diverge. Only under German
Competition Law, are there specific provisions for press mergers. In view of a recently
proposed amendment of the German Competition Law, the appropriate form of regulation
that is likely to guarantee a free press, will be investigated. It will also be analysed,
whether there is a specific need for press regulation in the South African context. Even
though there are no special provisions under South African Competition Law, the South
African Constitution leaves space for a broader understanding of the freedom of the press.
Hence, it will be examined if the South African Constitution obliges the state to enact particular
laws to protect press-plurality. Moreover, it will be analysed if the South African
Competition Act should be interpreted in a manner that would promote plurality of the
press. In the view of the eminent role of the press for a democratic society, it will be argued
in this thesis, that there is a particular need for media regulation. Notably the significant
levels of concentration in both German and South African press markets raise concerns
as regards the protection of a free and pluralistic press. It will be shown that there
are different foreign approaches to maintaining and promoting freedom of the press and it
will be suggested that South Africa recognises a need for more press-specific regulation in
the future. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie verhandeling vergelyk Suid-Afrikaanse en Duitse mededingingsreg. Dit is gefokus
op beheer oor persondernemings. Die vraag word gevra of spesiale reëls van toepassing
behoort te wees op transaksies in hierdie sektor, indien die politieke en ekonomiese
belang van 'n ongekonsentreerde en mededingende pers in ag geneem word. Dit word
uitgewys dat Suid-Afrikaanse en Duitse mededingsreg in vele opsigte soortgelyk is, wat
die regulering van samesmeltings betref. Beide regsstelsels volg 'n buigsame, hoofsaaklik
ekonomiese benadering tot die oorweging van 'n transaksie. Beide neem 'n veelheid van
faktore in ag om te bepaal of 'n transaksie moontlik negatiewe gevolge vir mededinging
het. Verder word pro-mededingende en publieke belangsaspekte in beide die Suid-
Afrikaanse en Duitse reg in ag geneem. In die geval van 'n samesmelting tussen
koerantondernemings verskil die twee sisteme egter. Die Duitse reg het spesiale reëls vir
samesmelting van sulke ondernemings. In die lig van wysigings wat onlangs aan die
Duitse mededingsreg voorgestel is, word geskikte vlakke van regulering van die pers, wat
nodig is om 'n vrye pers te waarborg, ondersoek. Aandag word geskenk aan die vraag of
daar'n behoefte is aan regulering van die pers in die Suid-Afrikaanse omgewing. Alhoewel
die Suid-Afrikaanse Grondwet nie spesiaal daarvoor voorsiening maak nie, laat die
Grondwet plek vir 'n wyer begrip van persvryeid. Dus word vasgestelof daar 'n plig op die
staat is om wetgewing in te voer wat die staat dwing om perspluralisme te beskerm.
Verder, word bepaal of die Suid-Afrikaanse Mededingingswet op so 'n wyse interpreteer
kan word dat dit perspluralisme sal bevorder. In die lig van die sentrale rol vir 'n vrye pers
in 'n demokratiese samelewing, word geargumenteer dat, daar 'n spesiale behoefte aan
reguleringvan die media is. Die hoë vlakke van konsentrasie in beide die Duitse en Suid-
Afrikaanse persmarkte skep besorgheid oor die beskerming van 'n vrye en pluralistiese
pers in hierdie lande. Dit word aangetoon dat daar verskillende benaderings tot die
beskerming en bevordering van 'n vrye pers in ander lande is en daar word voorgestel dat
Suid-Afrika 'n behoefte aan meer spesifieke reëls vir regulering van die pers erken.

Fair trade in South Africa : an assessment of fair trade in the South African wine sector.Berntsen, Eli Tonnessen. January 2009 (has links)
This study explores fair trade in the South African wine sector. It was motivated by different opinions with regard to fair trade products and the international trading system, as well as personal interest in how to improve the lives of the workers in the South, especially women. Although more fair trade would not improve the lives of all the poor people in countries in the South, it can be a beginning of ending this major problem as well as making the international trading system more equal. Although this study was limited by time and length, it gives the reader an insight in how production of fair trade wine in South Africa is different than other non-fair trade production. / Thesis (M.Dev.Studies)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, 2009.

La protección internacional de las indicaciones de origen geográfico. Análisis bajo la óptica del derecho contra la competencia deslealNewman Rodríguez, Silvana 21 November 2011 (has links)
Las indicaciones de origen geográfico están reguladas por un cúmulo de disposiciones normativas de diversa procedencia (internacional, regional y estatal), y por tanto, no es de extrañar que hayan despertado el interés de diferentes sectores del ordenamiento jurídico. El presente análisis, lejos de realizar un examen normativo completo, es decir, comprensivo de la total normativa internacional y regional relacionada con las indicaciones de origen geográfico, ostenta unos límites más modestos, toda vez que pretende examinar únicamente los preceptos dedicados a la tutela de las indicaciones de origen geográfico desde la perspectiva del Derecho sobre la Competencia Desleal en los acuerdos internacionales que las contemplan, esto es, analizarlas simultáneamente bajo la perspectiva del modelo tradicional de la propiedad intelectual que comprende el Convenio de la Unión de París, y bajo la perspectiva del modelo actual comprendido en el Acuerdo sobre los ADPIC y en los Convenios Bilaterales de nueva generación. / Indications of geographical origin are regulated by a host of regulatory requirements from various sources (international, regional and state), and therefore, no wonder they have attracted interest from various sectors of the legal system. This analysis, far from comprehensive regulatory examination, that is, understanding of the total international and regional regulations related to indications of geographical origin, holds more modest limits, all while attempting to consider only the precepts dedicated to the protection of indications of geographical origin from the perspective of the Unfair Competition law in international agreements that provide for them, that is, simultaneously analyzed from the perspective of the traditional model of intellectual property which includes the Paris Union Convention, and under the current model perspective included in the TRIPS Agreement and the Bilateral Agreements of new generation.
