Exploring reform dynamics and outcomes

Abstract

Agricultural and food policies have been subject to reform over the last three decades. This is the result of changed priorities within civil society, increased mobilization of and access for a wider range of interests with respect to food governance, and augmented salience of aspects of agricultural and food policies. Moreover, current reform dynamics have to deal with increasing nationalist sentiments and geo-political considerations, such as international dependencies which make food yet again a strategic product. Under this sub-topic, we welcome papers addressing reform dynamics in past and ongoing reform efforts (e.g. the recent CAP reform): How can we explain elements of continuity and change? How do experiences with previous policies feed back into current reform dynamics?
