This thesis deals with the evaluation of the concept of fair trade, specifically its impact on economic, social and environmental spheres of the life of producers and their communities in developing countries. The theoretical part defines the concept of fair trade, presents the historical development of the concept, discusses its main actors, principles and products; finally, it incorporates the issue into the theory of international trade. The main part of the thesis presents selected case studies that examine the impact of the participation in the fair trade system on producers of coffee, cocoa, bananas and sugar cane, and reveal whether fundamental objectives of the movement have been fulfilled in these cases.
