• Greener than Thou: The Political Economy of Fish Ecolabeling and Its Local Manifestations in South Africa (2008, background): “…In particular, case studies on coffee and timber have shown that sustainability certifications can indeed marginalize smaller producers and producers in poorer countries (Daviron & Ponte, 2005; Klooster, 2005; Morris & Dunne, 2004; Muradian & Pelupessy, 2005; Pattberg, 2006; Taylor, 2005).”
• Global resource grabs, agribusiness concentration and the smallholder: two West African case studies (2012, background): “This frequently undermined the livelihoods, standards of living and autonomy of smallholder farmers whose share of the value of agricultural production plummeted (Kaplinsky 2004, Daviron and Ponte 2005).”
• Agrarian political economy and modern world capitalism: the contributions of food regime analysis (2016, background): “…of the research of the Copenhagen–Montpellier group on commodity chains, with its mass of empirical research and precise analysis – for example, Raikes and Gibbon (2000), Daviron and Gibbon (2002), Gibbon and Ponte (2005), Daviron and Ponte (2005). original conception as an analytical approach.”

• Mainstreaming Fair Trade Coffee: From Partnership to Traceability (2009, background): “Commodity studies provide an insightful avenue for investigating complex global production, trade, and consumption networks within the agro-food sector (Daviron & Ponte, 2005; Gibbon & Ponte, 2005; Hughes, 2001; Ponte, 2002; Raynolds, 2004; Talbot, 2002).”
• The evolution of power in the global coffee value chain and production network (2019, background): “Studies that have applied the GVC approach to the coffee industry concur that the buyer-driven typology clearly fits the case (Fitter and Kaplinsky, 2001; Ponte, 2002; Daviron and Ponte, 2005; Ponte and Gibbon, 2005; Bitzer et al., 2008; Bamber et al., 2014).”
