This is an invaluable piece of work that, to my knowledge, is not
replicated anywhere, even in piecemeal fashion. It should be read
by everyone having a stake in the Transatlantic Trade and
Investment Partnership (TTIP) negotiations. It fills an historical
vacuum in US-EU agricultural trade relationships that has existed
for decades. This book provides the context of the past half
century, and it will be invaluable for another half century.' -
Clayton Yeutter, Former US Trade Representative, Former US
Secretary of Agriculture and Senior Advisor at Hogan Lovells, US
Tim Josling and Stefan Tangermann's Transatlantic Food and
Agricultural Trade Policy traces the past fifty years of
transatlantic trade relations in the area of food and agricultural
policy, from early skirmishes over farm policies to on-going
conflicts over biotech foods and hormone use in animal rearing. The
authors take an analytical approach to the causes of transatlantic
conflict and the extent to which these trade tensions in
agricultural markets have reflected wide differences in policy
approaches and levels of support. They explore the role played by
international rules, in the GATT, and subsequently the WTO, in
disciplining farm price support policies to allow for more open
markets. The book also points to possible ways to end five decades
of transatlantic trade tensions in the area of food and farm
products. Scholars, practitioners and policymakers will find this
timely book an invaluable and comprehensive guide to the causes of,
and solutions to, the persistent EU-US trade conflicts in
agricultural and food policy.
