Description
This purchase only includes the ebook version of this title.
This remarkable monograph tells the story of the boom in the acaí fruit economy—from a rural staple to a chic health food delicacy in national and international markets—and examines the development of the production systems and commodity chains required to supply the burgeoning demand for this fruit. It also carefully reconsiders the contested and stigmatized history of the social identity of caboclos.
