As I have reviewed this book twice prior to its publication, I can only recommend it. The analysis, though based on North America, offers precious lessons to the development of organic communities anywhere on the globe. Cheers, Nadia

The Changing Politics of Organic Food in North America

Lisa F. Clark

Lisa F. Clark, Department of Bioresource Policy, Business and Economics, University of Saskatchewan, Canada

The Changing Politics of Organic Food in North America explores the political dynamics of the remarkable transition of organic food from a ‘fringe fad’ in the 1960s to a multi-billion dollar industry in the 2000s. Taking a multidisciplinary, institutionalist approach that integrates social movement theory, public policy analysis and value chain analysis, it tells the story of how the organic movement responded to the social, economic and political changes brought on by the rise of industrial agriculture in the twentieth century.
