Abstract: | The dominant discourse in 20th century UK food and agricultural policies of a liberal, free trade agenda was modified at the
turn of the 21st to embrace ecological sustainability and “food security.” The latter term has a long international history;
the relationship between issues of technical production and equality of distributional access are also much debated. The paper
examines shifts in UK policy discourse in the context of international research, policy, and initiatives to promote food security,
and highlights the implications for social justice in and through the food system. |
