• Mainstreaming Sustainable Coffee (2013, unknown): “…accepting farmers: entry barriers for RA and Utz are low; for Fairtrade entry barriers are also low as far as registration is concerned, but high for actual participation, and there are limits to numbers of farmers and volumes of coffee that it can include in practice (Muradian & Pelupessy, 2005).”
• Escaping the green prison: Entrepreneurship and the creation of opportunities for sustainable development (2010, background): “Examples of norms developed in the realm of sustainable entrepreneurship include codes of behavior among tourism operators in Australia (Huybers and Bennett, 2003), international sustainable coffee partnerships (4C, 2009a; Muradian and Pelupessy, 2005), third-party certification programs for organic”
• Firms' Adoption of International Standards: Evidence from the Ethiopian Floriculture Sector (2015, result): “This is consistent with the previous observation that certified firms do not necessarily receive higher prices than they would for regular products (for example, BTC, 2010; Muradian and Pelupessy, 2005).”
• Fair Trade organic coffee production in Nicaragua — Sustainable development or a poverty trap? (2009, background): “…Fair Trade aims to support democratically organized cooperatives of smallscale farmers in developing countries through payment of minimum prices, premiums for social development, improved labour rights and long-term trading relationships (Muradian and Pelupessy, 2005; Raynolds et al., 2007).”
• Linking Globalization to Local Land Uses: How Eco-Consumers and Gourmands are Changing the Colombian Coffee Landscapes (2013, background): “Authors are more hopeful about the ability of standards to help farmers upgrade (Giovannucci & Ponte, 2005; Muradian & Pelupessy, 2005) and on the opportunities to establish new partnerships (Petkova, 2006), although evidence in both areas is scant.”
• The evolution of power in the global coffee value chain and production network (2019, methodology): “For instance, the sustainability verification systems used by Starbucks and Nespresso allow them to obtain precious information on suppliers’ cost structures as well, thus strengthening roasters’ bargaining power and ability to extract value in higher-margin markets (Muradian and Pelupessy, 2005; El”
• The Political Dynamics of Sustainable Coffee: Contested Value Regimes and the Transformation of Sustainability (2016, unknown): “transnational arena for private regulation (Bartley, 2007; Muradian and Pelupessy, 2005; Reinecke et al., 2012).”
• Impacts of Fair Trade certification on coffee farmers, cooperatives, and laborers in Nicaragua (2010, background): “In recent years, several quality standard systems and certification schemes, including Fair Trade, have put an increasing focus on civic conventions based on general societal values ( Muradian and Pelupessy 2005 ).”
• Compensation and Rewards for Environmental Services in the Developing World: Framing Pan-Tropical Analysis and Comparison (2009, background): “Tropical 13 products most influenced by these mechanisms are forest products (Stringer 2006), coffee (Muradian and Pelupessy 2005) and eco-tourism.”
• The ambivalent impact of coffee certification on farmers' welfare: A matched panel approach for cooperatives in Central Kenya (2016, background): “4 Certification has brought, however, little changes into agency relations throughout the value chain and the nature of contracts (i.e., distribution of value added shares) has not been substantially modified (Muradian & Pelupessy, 2005; Raynolds, 2009; Valkila, Haaparanta, & Niemi, 2010).”
