Yet control over food is concentrated in relatively few hands. Turmoil in the world food economy in recent decades has highlighted a number of vulnerabilities and contradictions inherent in the way we currently organise this vital sector. Extremes of both undernourishment and overnourishment affect a significant proportion of humanity. Attempts to increase production through the spread of an industrial model of agriculture have resulted in serious ecological consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fully revised and expanded third edition of this popular book explores how the rise of industrial agriculture, corporate control, inequitable agricultural trade rules, and the financialisation of food have each enabled powerful actors to gain fundamental influence over the practices that dominate the world food economy, resulting in uneven consequences for both people and planet. A variety of movements have emerged that are making important progress in establishing alternative food systems, but, as Clapp’s penetrating analysis ably shows, significant challenges remain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47596421775596,"sku":"9781509541775","price":42.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781509541775-food.jpg?v=1777924887"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/jennifer-clapp.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
