This book makes a major contribution to our understanding of how
significantly food governance is changing at both the national and
international levels. What is particularly noteworthy about this
volume is how clearly and comprehensively it integrates the
important public and private dimensions of food governance.' -
David Vogel, University of California, Berkeley, USThis book
examines the changing landscape of food governance. Within this
landscape, both public and private regulators increasingly
encounter one another as markets have become more globalized. While
these encounters may often be planned, long-term and lead to
positive relationships and outcomes, they can also be accidental
collisions that result in antagonistic relationships and crisis.
Empirically, this book investigates these public and private
encounters in food governance and the institutional challenges they
raise. Importantly, it also explores the public policy responses to
these issues at the national, supranational and transnational
levels, and investigates new forms of private food regulation.
Against this empirical backdrop, the contributors provide insights
into broader analytical issues that have animated regulatory
governance scholarship such as the legitimacy and effectiveness of
public and private regulation, the distribution of power in
regulatory arrangements, the interaction of layers and networks of
regulation and regulatory responses to crisis. This comprehensive
book will be of great value to those interested in gaining an
interdisciplinary understanding of the empirical area of food
governance and the analytical issues of regulatory governance.
