Więcej o książce

The book examines the complex role of the coffee industry in shaping modern Costa Rican society, highlighting its historical significance and the evolution of the co-op movement. Through archival research and personal narratives of key coffee-growing families, it reveals how the gourmet coffee market's rise in the 1990s impacted production and the traditional family farm structure. Urbanization and education have further challenged the viability of coffee farming, leading to a decline in its economic prominence as tourism and other sectors gain ground.
