The research project aims at unveiling thepolitical, social and cultural processes around the circulation of marketrationales at the global scale and on the ground. In-depth analyses of twoexemplary settings, Peru and Ghana, reveal the extent to which nationalpolicies, development programs, laws and academic curricula have adopted a"thinking in terms of value chains" in the last decade.
