When genetically engineered seeds were first deployed in
theAmericas in the mid-1990s, the biotechnology industry and its
partnersenvisaged a world in which their crops would be widely
accepted as thefood of the future. Critics, however, raised a
variety of social,environmental, economic, and health concerns.
This book traces theemergence of the 2000 Cartagena Protocol on
Biosafety - andthe discourse of precaution toward GEOs that the
protocolinstitutionalized internationally. Peter Andree explains
this reversalin the "common-sense" understanding of genetic
engineering,and discusses the new debates it has engendered.
