    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Set against this backdrop of national extractivist policies, this book explores the sustainable production of cocoa in the Peruvian Amazon to investigate the role of local communities and the impact of sustainability governance.


    Sustainable Cocoa in the Peruvian Amazon draws on extensive ethnographic research from the San Martin region to showcase the extent to which sustainable production is influenced by how communities interact with the state and its infrastructural resources. This book highlights how local people dedicated to cocoa come together within a subnational political economy, and adds a more human dimension to institutional analyses that often focus on globally driven value chains with stylized market actors. Anke Kaulard provides a comprehensive examination of the dynamics driving productive transformation in Amazonian territories, uncovering a wider structural shift toward sustainable agriculture and productive transformation within an extractivist context.


    Amazonian territories are a key site for contemporary debates, where tensions between conservation, sustainable land use, and extractivism are especially pronounced, and this book offers valuable insights for students, scholars and practitioners interested in food and agriculture, sustainable transformations and Latin American development.
