Abstract

Murat Yilmaz aims to explore how social movements find the means to fund their campaigns and their struggles. His focus is on how Fair Trade could represent a possible solution to this issue, since it is a social movement capable of generating economic wealth through the practice of ethical commercial activities that do not embrace traditional forms of commerce.
