Abstract:

This article analyses the banana economy, particularly its social and environmental consequences. The discussion is largely based on the case study of Cameroon, but there are good reasons to believe that many research findings are relevant for the whole banana industry as the global banana production and trade is heavily based on giant agro-industrial plantations. There is, indeed, information from different important banana producing countries indicating that working conditions in the industry all too often include forced labour, child labour, lack of job security, low wages, and health and s

Abstract:

Bananas are the most commonly eaten and significant fruit in global trade. Bananas are produced using a variety of methods and environments. In addition to regularly updating farmers on problems in banana plant leaves, this system aims to discover, diagnose, and treat banana leaf diseases. Customers' wants and lifestyles have changed significantly during the past few decades. These modifications provide additional difficulties for farmers whose output must satisfy consumer needs. Both the farmer and the consumer will benefit from the capacity to categorize agricultural products according to si

Abstract:

Rendering production and trade more sustainable can be accomplished via promoting innovation and sustainable business models. This paper addresses sustainable production and international trade in the banana agro-export sector of Ecuador. This activity provides millions of dollars in income, but with this development, a series of quality standards have been established to enter the competitive export system. These criteria contributed to establishing good post-harvest production and management practices that guarantee optimal banana and plantain production. The objective of this study is to de

Abstract:

Bananas on smallholder farmers in the African Great Lakes region are often pruned to illuminate shorter understory intercrops, reducing overall farm profitability. The impact of this practice on environmental and nutritional indicators are not known. This study determined the effect of this practice on operating profit, protein yield, soil organic matter (SOM) balance, and nitrogen input; and the management options for optimal performance of the intercrops. Alternative scenarios for improving soil nutrient balances of the system were also explored. Data from an experiment intercropping bush be

The present study aims at expanding the debate on the potentials of the fair-trade in terms of environmental sustainability. Design/methodology/approach The research presents a methodology divided into three phases: (1) the identification of the water footprint values associated with the production of bananas, cocoa and coffee imported from developing countries to Italy; (2) the calculation of the virtual water volumes

Abstract:

This article delves into the concept of ‘armed peace’ in the context of the social and armed conflict in Urabá, Colombia. The term ‘armed peace’ refers to the relative stability that was established in Urabá since the 1990s, when paramilitary groups took control of the region from subversive guerrillas with the aid of the state, local capitalists, Banana transnational corporations, and trade unions. This stability was achieved through a paramilitary rule that was based on capitalist interests and enabled by the suppression of subversion. The study explores the relationship between peace and co

Introduction 1. In an era of globalization, international trade is inevitable. When we walk into a supermarket and find South American bananas, Malaysian rubber products, Brazilian coffee, we simply experience the impact of global trade. Global trade allows all countries around the world to publicise their markets and to supply goods and services that otherwise would not have been open to the domestic economy. As all goods and services are available at relatively cheaper prices in the international market, therefore domestic market becomes more competitive. People have got choices for competit

Abstract:

The paper seeks to comment on the efficiency and fairness of the World Trade Organization by examining its Dispute Settlement Mechanism. The study has attempted to achieve the same by focusing on the legal and economic analysis of ‘The European Communities – Regime for Importation, Sale and Distribution of Bananas Case’, a landmark judgement in the Dispute Settlement Body’s history that spanned two decades. The paper has analysed trade data from 1993-2016 to arrive at its conclusions and infer the legal rationale behind the verdict while scrutinizing the sectoral as well as overall economic im

<strong>Introduction</strong> China has been well known as one of the largest recipients of foreign direct investment (FDI) among developing countries since the mid-1990s, and a global manufacturing hub as well as the second largest investing countries in the world (UNCTAD, 2018). Despite the global slowdown of capital flow, the trends in China’s overseas investment kept a strong growth momentum with the boost of the Belt and Road Initiative, with costs more than 1 trillion US dollars in the construction of railways, roads, bridges and ports across more than 65 countries and regions (UNC

Abstract How do you build supply chain logistics to facilitate a political idea and not merely the movement of goods? This essay offers a historical and ethnographic account of “people-to-people trade” (minshū kōeki) between Japanese and Filipino activists from the 1970s onward. In contrast to a vast majority of transnational chains designed foremost to facilitate the efficient circulation of commodities, people-to-people trade has seen its main thrust as supporting linkage politics against the backdrop of a hacienda- and plantation-dominated economy.

Introduction This paper is based upon an investigation into the life of a street market in the city of Ha Noi in Vietnam, and experience of the street food served on Ha Noi’s pavements. It draws upon interviews with itinerant food vendors conducted by the researchers and upon accounts of their daily lives from a Vietnamese film subtitled in English and French, sourced from the Vietnamese Women’s Museum (Jensen). The research considers the lives of the people making and selling street food against the distilled versions of cultural experience accessible through the pages of two recent English l

Depending on your perspective, Non-Fungible Token (NFT) artworks are inaugurating an exciting new chapter in the history of art, or a dangerous new chapter in the history of online market bubbles. NFTs index artworks, and are typically strings of characters stored on a blockchain such as Ethereum. NFTs are not exclusively used to index artworks, and have been used to index a range of collectibles, but it is the sale of NFTs associated with artworks that has launched the phenomenon into public consciousness. Perhaps the most famous example of this is the digital artist Beeple’s sale of an NFT f

Abstract:

Sugar pigs are traditional confections shaped like sugar mice with little legs and no tail. One might, therefore, nibble the trotters of a sugar pig or suck delicately upon the nose of a sugar pig, but one must never eat one’s sugary treats like a pig. As an imagined border between the private world inside the body and the public world outside, the mouth is an unstable limit of selfhood. Food can easily cause disgust as it passes through this hazardous terrain, and this disgust is produced less by the thought of incorporation than by socially constructed boundaries such as the division between

Introduction One of the ways in which ‘country’ is made to work discursively is in ‘country music’ – defining a genre and sensibility in music production, marketing and consumption. This article seeks to excavate one small niche in the historical geography of country music to explore exactly how discursive antecedents emerged, and crucially, how images associated with ‘country’ surfaced and travelled internationally via one of the new ‘global’ media of the first half of the twentieth century – sheet music.
