Like the Green Revolution of the 1960s, a "Blue Revolution" has
taken place in global aquaculture. Geared towards quenching the
appetite of privileged consumers in the global North, it has come
at a high price for the South: ecological devastation, displacement
of rural subsistence farmers, and labour exploitation. The
uncomfortable truth is that food security for affluent consumers
depends on a foundation of social and ecological devastation in the
producing countries. In Confronting the Blue Revolution, Md Saidul
Islam uses the shrimp farming industry in Bangladesh and across the
global South to show the social and environmental impact of
industrialized aquaculture. The book pushes us to reconsider our
attitudes to consumption patterns in the developed world,
neoliberal environmental governance, and the question of
sustainability.
