Responsibility and agency within alternative food networks: assembling the “citizen consumer” (2009, background): “Fair trade seeks not to abolish international commodity exchange but to reform it by establishing new forms of exchange between resource-poor Southern producers and Northern consumers that provide higher cash returns to farmers while encouraging use of these premiums to support improved environmenta”
Certified organic agriculture in Mexico: Market connections and certification practices in large and small producers (2005, background): “In this manner the positive social-environmental reputation of indigenous and smallholder peasant production serves to ‘‘greenwash’’ industrially produced yet certified-organic foods (Goodman, 2004; Renard, 2005).”

Understanding and (dis)trusting food assurance schemes: Consumer confidence and the ‘knowledge fix’ (2008, background): “The organisation, the brand, the logo, stands in for a multitude of other practices and knowledges – it is a shorthand learned through the prevalent capitalist logic of shopping, even where a scheme sets out to challenge that logic, such as with Fairtrade (Goodman, 2004).”

Who decides what is fair in fair trade? The agri-environmental governance of standards, access, and price (2010, background): “These conceptual steps are further complemented by studies addressing the ‘other’ end of the commodity chain as eaters, drinkers, citizens, and consumers complete a fundamental step in this iterative process (Allen 1993 , Goodman 2004 , DuPuis and Goodman 2005 , Lockie 2009 ).”
Are Sustainable Coffee Certifications Enough to Secure Farmer Livelihoods? The Millenium Development Goals and Nicaragua's Fair Trade Cooperatives (2008, background): “It contributes to a growing literature that uses coffee as an entry point to study the relationships connecting consumers, industry, and civil society with sustainable development in the tropics (Bacon et al., 2008; Daviron & Ponte, 2005; Goodman, 2008; Goodman, 2004; Jaffee, 2007; Levi & Linton, 20”
Environmental Certification of Forests in Mexico: The Political Ecology of a Nongovernmental Market Intervention (2006, background): “…direct observations and data from interviews with Mexican forest managers, villagers, regulators, and NGO workers, it answers calls for critical ethnographic fieldwork in the places of production affected by the new geographies of commodity certification (Marsden 2000; M. K. Goodman 2004).”
Explaining the 'hungry farmer paradox': Smallholders and fair trade cooperatives navigate seasonality and change in Nicaragua's corn and coffee markets (2014, background): “…agrifood systems oriented researchers often study the relationships linking certified fair trade, shade grown, and organic coffee markets to Latin American landscapes and communities (Rice, 2001; Raynolds, 2000; Mutersbaugh, 2004; Eakin et al., 2006; Giovannucci and Ponte, 2005; Goodman, 2004).”
