Food Policy: Integrating health, environment and society



For over half a century, food policy has mapped a path for progress based upon a belief that the right mix of investment, scientific input, and human skills could unleash a surge in productive capacity which would resolve humanity's food-related health and welfare problems.
International Food Policy Research Insitute 9780801864766 Out of the Shadow of Famine: Evolving Food Markets and Food Policy in Bangladesh Description The story of how Bangladesh transformed its food markets and food policies to free the country from famine by dismantling its food rationing system, privatizing grain distribution and reducing its own presence in grain markets. The case of Bangladesh has relevance as a study of the outcomes of a market-oriented reform program. *Author: Ahmed, Rai

In the 21st century, this policy mix is quietly becoming unstuck. In a world marred by obesity alongside malnutrition, climate change alongside fuel and energy crises, water stress alongside more mouths to feed, and social inequalities alongside unprecedented accumulation of wealth, the old rubric of food policy needs re-evaluation.
