Main Description
The regulatory systems in place prior to the development and expansion of agricultural biotechnology are still responding to this new form of technology. Such systems include trade law, intellectual property law, contract law, environmental regulations and biosafety regulations.
This book reviews these regulatory changes and consists of 24 chapters developed from papers presented at a conference of the International Consortium on Agricultural Biotechnology Research, held in Italy in July 2002. It primarily considers the relationship between these changes and innovation, market development and international trade.
Reviews
• "This is a 'must read' book for supporters of the many different views on biotechnology, who will gain a better understanding of the problems and viewpoints of others if they read it in totality. The editors and their contributors must be congratulated on an excellent publication."
W H Macfarlane Smith, Experimental Agriculture, 41, 2005
• "Science policy makers will find the text useful, as issues such as genomic research funding and post-commercial regulation of the genetically modified material are dealt with in great detail. Various chapters offer a fascinating insight into how the USA/EU argument has developed and how it may be resolved. Such clarity makes for a curiously readable text for all of those involved in the industry and those those wishing to read a pragmatic account of how the agricultural biotechnology industry is likely to be shaped in the near future."
D Tabah, Biologist, July 2005
