Chocolate has long been a favourite indulgence in Europe and the Americas. Asia too is developing a growing appetite for this everyday luxury. But behind every chocolate bar we unwrap lie power struggles and political manoeuvring over its most important ingredient: cocoa.In this incisive book, Kristy Leissle reveals how cocoa, which brings pleasure and wealth to relatively few, depends upon an extensive global trade system that exploits the labour of five million growers, as well as countless other workers and vulnerable groups.
