The GM debate has been ongoing for over a decade, yet it has been
contained in the scientific world and presented in technical terms.
Eco Crime and Genetically Modified Food brings the debates about GM
food into the social and criminological arena. This book highlights
the criminal and harmful actions of state and corporate officials.
It concludes that corporate and political corruption, uncertain
science, bitter public opposition, growing farmer concern and
bankruptcy, irreversible damage to biodervisty, corporate
monopolies and exploitation, disregard for social and cultural
practices, devastation of small scale and local agricultural
economies, imminent threats to organics, weak regulation, and
widespread political and biotech mistrust - do not provide the
bases for advancing and progressing GM foods into the next decade.
Yet, with the backing of the WTO, the US and UK Governments march
on - but at what cost to future generations?
