RESUMO

This dissertation approaches fair trade conceptually and in its practices. As a social movement that is assuming also a commercial role, fair trade presents dynamics that correlate politics and markets. The first chapter consists of a debate around those dynamics, presenting the movement in its general aspect. The following chapter states the actors and concepts that institutionalize fair trade. The third chapter explores the context of cotton in the movement, as much in relation to the politics aspects of international trade and the parallel social movements, as the commercial ones, where it develops as a fashion market niche. With the cotton subject introduced, the last chapter demonstrates in practical the development of a fair trade textile supply chain in Brazil through the case study of the French mark "Tudo Bom?".
