Beschreibung
Assembling Export Markets explores the new 'frontier regions' of the global fresh produce market that has emerged in Ghana over the past decade. * Represents a major and empirically rich contribution to the emerging field of the social studies of economization and marketization * Offers one of the first ethnographic accounts on the making of global commodity chains 'from below' * Denaturalizes global markets by unpacking their local engagement, materially entangled construction, need for maintenance, and fragile character * Offers a trans-disciplinary engagement with the construction and extension of market relations in two frontier regions of global capitalism * Critically examines the opportunities and risks for firms and farms in Ghana entering global fresh produce markets

'In transparently clear prose, Stefan Ouma has written a wonderfully rich empirical account of how global markets for tropical fruit are made both materially and institutionally at the intersection of very particular local sites. The book is another terrific example of the usefulness of the theory of economic performativity that German economic geographers have increasingly honed and made their own.'

'In this provocative book, Ouma challenges the conventional wisdom of both market enthusiasts and critics. Through insights from across the social sciences, he shows how both market institutions and the persons who perform them always emerge from particular messy historical circumstances, creating different formats and distributions of power in different locations. Ouma's 'on the ground' study offers a new and important approach to understanding markets.'

'A rich exploration of the sociomaterial processes of marketization of two case studies of agriculture projects linked to the European market. Ouma's theoretical approach is eclectic, diverse, and interdisciplinary, edging on the line of exploration. The focused presentation of the various actor processes compels the reader to stay attentive to the details. This is a book that makes an extraordinary contribution both theoretically and empirically to the understanding of the ways in which global agro-export markets, which connect goods and products from the Global South to retailers in the Global North, are created through local projects.'

'I learned a lot reading this monograph, and find it to be a valuable addition to the commodity chain literature, providing sharp insights for thinking about critical ethnographies of markets and market making.'

'Focusing on development through export-oriented integration into global markets, [Assembling Export Markets is] grounded in a wealth of ethnographic material, gathered with an amount of fieldwork that few scholars are prepared or are able to invest in the current academic environment... This impressive study of attempts to make agricultural markets in Ghana is cutting-edge scholarly work of the highest quality that I greatly enjoyed reading.'
