The Politics of Genetically Modified Organisms in the United States and Europe

Meer over het boek

The book explores the ongoing controversy surrounding genetically modified organisms (GMOs) despite scientific consensus on their safety. Clancy investigates the trans-Atlantic debate by comparing public opposition in various countries, highlighting how science is politicized in the discourse. A key argument is that the absence of GMO labeling in the U.S. fuels public fears and misconceptions. The author proposes that allowing tested GMOs into the market and implementing labeling could help resolve the contentious debate.
