Martin Kunz ist seit über 45 Jahren im Fairen Handel aktiv. Am Beginn stand sein ziviler Ersatzdienst mit indischen Nichtregierungsorganisationen in Kalkutta und (nach Rückkehr in der Mitte der 70er Jahre) der Aufbau eines der ältesten Weltläden. Es folgten seine Tätigkeit als erster Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender der gepa (der grö ten alternativen Handelsorganisation der Welt), und als Gründungsgeschäftsführer des weltweiten Dachverbands für Fairtrade Siegelinitiativen TransFair International (TFI), sowie dessen Folgeorganisation FairTrade Labelling Organization (FLO, heutzutage Fairtrade International). 1994 schrieb er die ersten Kriterien für Fairtrade besiegelten Tee (die Einführung des 'Joint Body' Konzepts war später Basis für weitere Fair Trade Standards für abhängig Beschäftigte), und für Fair gehandelte Fu bälle (1998).Die letzten 15 Jahre widmete er v.a. der Ausweitung des Fair Trade Konzepts auf Naturkautschuk und die Gründung des Fair Rubber e.V.. Heute steht für ihn seine Firma Diversity Honeys GmbH im Mittelpunkt, die über den Verkauf von Honig von asiatischen Honigbienen die Aufmerksamkeit auf deren Bedeutung für Biodiversität lenken möchte. Die Firma verkauf auch Plastik-freie Gartenartikel.In diesem Buch sind einige seiner schriftlichen Beiträge vereint, insbesondere seine Doktorarbeit über 'Dritte Welt Läden', die hier erstmals in elektronischer Form zugänglich ist. Martin Kunz has been active in Fair Trade for more than 45 years. From the time when he served with local Non Governmental Organizations in Kolkata in the mid 1970 until today, he was part of a group that founded one of the first World Shops in Germany, he was the first chairman of the board of directors of gepa, the world's largest Alternative Trade Organization, he was founding executive secretary of the global Fairtrade label association TransFair International (TFI) and also of its successor FairTrade Labelling Organization (FLO - nowadays Fairtrade international). In 1994 he wrote the first criteria for Fairtrade labelled tea (which included the introduction of the 'Joint Body' concept, which became blueprint for criteria involving hired labour) and for Fairly Traded soccer balls (1998).Most recently he expanded Fair Trade to cover natural rubber, and for nine years he was the director of the Fair Rubber Association. He is still active with his company Diversity Honeys Ltd., raising awareness for issues such as biodiversity (particularly pollinator diversity) by selling honey from Asian honey bees and plastic free gardening products. This book brings together some of his writing, including his PhD thesis on 'Third World Shops', which becomes electronically available for the first time.
