	Fair trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although critics of so-called fairer trading practices charge that proposals for reform simply amount to protectionism, campaigners maintain that it is rich countries such as the United States and the European Union which operate expansive programmes that subsidise their domestic producers.
		Advocates of fair trade argue that growing inequity and serious gaps in social justice, and the global export of terrorism, are symptoms of an economic system that permits harms to be exported to other countries, while importing their goods.
		Fair trade is also to be distinguished from safe trade which is more narrowly focused on preservation of biodiversity, biosafety, biosecurity and preventing serious global climate change.

		Indeed, although there are many who are still critical of free trade in general, there is a trend towards campaigning against what is seen as hypocrisy by developed countries in using protectionism against the poorest countries (especially in agricultural products), whilst requiring them to leave their own producers without protection.
		In addition, the fair trade movement has built on long-standing attempts to allow consumers the choice of giving producers in poor countries a better deal, and has developed the fairtrade labelling system.
		Fair Trade organisations (backed by consumers) are engaged actively in supporting producers, awareness raising and in campaigning for changes in the rules and practice of conventional international trade."
