SUMMARY:Development and political economy seminar - Jean-Marie Baland

DESCRIPTION:In this paper\, we develop a model of North-South trade to inve
 stigate the impact of Fair Trade. In the absence of a label\, Southern prod
 ucers are exploited by monopsonisitic traders who export to Northern market
 s. The Fair Trade label certifies the adoption of high labour standards and
  the payment of fair prices to producers in the South. We first show that t
 he label is never Pareto-improving: the welfare of unlabeled producers in t
 he South falls if and only if the welfare of Northern consumers increases. 
 An expansion of Fair Trade tends to exacerbate those effects. We also show 
 that the consequences of fair trade are systematically dampened in environm
 ents where traders enjoy more market power.\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont
