At the turn of the twentieth century, Cadbury Bros. Ltd. was a successful, Quakerowned chocolate manufacturer in Birmingham, England, celebrated for its model village, modern factory, and concern for employees. In 1901 the firm learned that its cocoa beans, purchased from Portuguese plantations on the island of So Tom off West Africa, were produced by slave labor.Chocolate on Trial: Slavery, Politics, and the Ethics of Business is a lively and highly readable account of the events surrounding the libel trial in which Cadbury Bros. sued the London Standard over the newspapers accusation that the firm was hypocritical in its use of slavegrown cocoa. Lowell J. Satre probes issues as compelling now as they were a century ago: globalization, corporate social responsibility, journalistic sensationalism, and devious diplomacy.Satre illuminates the stubborn persistence of the institution of slavery and shows how Cadbury, a company with a wellregarded brand name from the nineteenth century, faced ethical dilemmas and challenges to its record for social responsibility. Chocolate on Trial brings to life the ageold conflict between economic interests and regard for the dignity of human life.
