Global Governance of Food Production and Consumption

Description:

"The provision of food is undergoing radical transformations throughout the global community. Peter Oosterveer argues that, as a consequence, conventional national governmental regulations can no longer adequately respond to existing and emerging food risks and to environmental concerns. This book examines these challenges." "Peter Oosterveer's book will appeal to scholars - postgraduate and above -involved in industrial organisation, agricultural studies and environmental sciences as well as those with an interest in the globalisation and governance of this important and topical area."--BOOK JACKET.
