This study explores the reasons behind the different responses of
the legal systems of Europe, Japan and the USA in coping with BSE,
one of the major food safety crises in recent years. Making
reference to the most recent advances on risk perception that
cognitive and social sciences, such as legal anthropology and
sociology of law, have experimented with, Risk Perception, Culture,
and Legal Change examines the role that culture plays in moulding
the process of legal change. Attention is focused on the regulative
frameworks implemented to guarantee the safety of the food chain
against the BSE menace and on the liability responses sketched to
compensate the victims of mad cow disease, showing how both these
elements have been influenced by the cultural context within which
they are situated.
