A business competing in a commodity like environment must focus on which of the following?

Abstract

For Marx, commodity fetishism is the tendency of people to see the product of their labor in terms of relationships between things, rather than social relationships between people. In other words, people view the commodity only in terms of the characteristics of the final product while the process through which it was created remains obscured and, therefore, unconsidered. This has crucial implications for our collective ability to see and address the ongoing processes of social and environmental destruction under capitalism. This article examines one effort to lift the veil obscuring the relations and processes of commodity production. Fair trade attempts to make visible the social and environmental relations of production and exchange that lie behind the commodity. This assists producers in making a shift in the qualitative nature of production, particularly in terms of its impacts on producers and on the environment. The purpose of this article is to determine the extent to which fair trade can address the problem of commodity fetishism and to identify the barriers it encounters in attempting to do so.

Organization & Environment aims to publish rigorous and impactful research on the management of organizations and its implications for the sustainability and flourishing of the social, natural and economic environment in which they act. To this end, it searches for contributions to the academic, managerial and policy debates related to the sustainable development of organizations, grounded on sound social (e.g. economics, political science, sociology, psychology, history, law, and all business domains), natural and/or life science research. In addition to the exploration of novel concepts and the advancement of theory, the experimentation of new methodologies and designs, and the empirical validation of theoretical insights, O&E; encourages the study of new phenomena, not completely explainable with extant knowledge, and the consequent launch of novel theoretical and empirical lines of inquiry. Finally, it welcomes the registration of experimental designs, in labs but especially on the field, committing to publish the results of well-executed registered studies, regardless of the scientific outcome.
