Synopsis

This book centers upon a 1902 convention that sought to equalize market competition for betterave and cane sugar and foster consumer demand. The author, a sugar market expert, was a key drafter of the convention and provides an extensive historical and analytic framework for the agreement. The book begins with the historical context of sugar production in France and Germany at the end of the 19th century and examines sugar cooperatives and state policies on sugar production. The author delves into the concept of sugar premiums, their varying forms, and their impact on the international sugar market. The author provides a detailed description and analysis of the convention's provisions which sought to regulate the sugar trade through specific measures. The convention addressed issues such as state subsidies, export duties, and taxation. It also created a permanent commission to monitor compliance and evaluate the effectiveness of the convention. The author explores the challenges and complexities of implementing the convention, including the varying national interests of the participating countries. Ultimately, the book sheds light on the complex economic and political landscape of the global sugar trade at the turn of the 20th century and underscores the enduring relevance of the convention's insights on international trade and regulation.
