Book Description
This book, written by global experts, provides a comprehensive and topical analysis on the economics of chocolate. While the main approach is economic analysis, there are important contributions from other disciplines, including psychology, history, government, nutrition, and geography. The chapters are organized around several themes, including the history of cocoa and chocolate — from cocoa drinks in the Maya empire to the growing sales of Belgian chocolates in China; how governments have used cocoa and chocolate as a source of tax revenue and have regulated chocolate (and defined it by law) to protect consumers' health from fraud and industries from competition; how the poor cocoa producers in developing countries are linked through trade and multinational companies with rich consumers in industrialized countries; and how the rise of consumption in emerging markets (China, India, and Africa) is causing a major boom in global demand and prices, and a potential shortage of the world's chocolate.

Book Description
The cyclical boom-to-recession nature of the economics of cocoa supply is a major problem for the international cocoa industry - and especially for countries whose economies depend on cocoa exports. Only through an understanding of the dynamics of cocoa cycles can policy decisions be made through the various phases of supply cycles. Based on a major international cocoa conference, this book presents seventeen edited papers from leading experts, making a major contribution to that understanding. It explains the powerful economic, social and political factors which impact on the cocoa economy. It shows the laws of cocoa supply are closely linked to environmental, ecological and institutional factors.

Book Description
The cocoa industry presents an ideal opportunity for the study of a staple commodity market. Raw cocoa is a homogeneous product. Although there are several grades of raw cocoa, there are no brands or trademarks that command a premium, except in the sense that a concern may deal only with the higher grades. Manufactures cocoa products, it is true, are marketed under brand names and some companies may sell at a higher price merely as a result of advertising. For this reason, this study deals only with the raw cocoa industry. Our investigation will enable us to discover how the law of supply and demand, and how imperfections in the market affect the price of cocoa. We will discuss the problems of eliminating the imperfections and adjusting supply to demand. But this study is important not merely as an exercise in economic analysis but because the cocoa industry is vital to the prosperity of millions of people. It is true that only an insignificant number of people in the United States are connected with the industry, but in the future we will be concerned with international problems and will be dealing with the welfare of people all over the world.
