| dc.description.abstract | Creating a network of co-operatives may counter the dominance that MNCs hold on Fair Trade. This includes a joint effort to market and support the goods of small producers, influence public policy, and to develop a separate product certification system to identify goods that are produced and traded ethically. | en_US |
