The stalemate that had emerged between these two positions by 2000 has now been dramatically reconfigured. This book argues that there are four reasons why this area of policy has now reopened to wider debate: The World Food Crisis of 2008-2011 has signalled a potential end to the era of cheap food. The emergence of climate change as a core policy concern has shifted key targets for agricultural policy. New trends towards 'neo-productivist' agricultural policy have emerged to challenge multifunctional approaches to agriculture. New academic ideas around resilience of food chains and relevant policy interventions have challenged established approaches to achieving agricultural sustainability. Through international case studies, this book evaluates how these new policy challenges are having an impact on specific agricultural policy regimes, and what future lessons might be learnt from key policy experiments around neoliberalism and multifunctionality.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 30mmItem Weight: 576gContributor: Reider Almas (Edited by), Hugh Campbell (Edited by), Terry Marsden (Series edited by)Genre: Science Nature & MathTopic: Technology & EngineeringBook Series: Research in Rural Sociology and DevelopmentAuthor: Terry MarsdenRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
