Summary: At the outset of a new round of World Trade Organization talks, agricultural issues remain bitterly contested. In this volume, international experts provide fresh insights on topics that agribusinesses, producer organizations, governments, and scholars must respond to as negotiations progress. The authors cogently discuss rapidly evolving environmental policies; state trading enterprises and their impact on international prices and competitiveness; regional trade agreements; and the influence of the WTO on rural development policy, consumer protection regulation, and the structuring of health measures worldwide. The result is a thoughtful assessment of how new global policies are affecting—and will affect—both states and markets.
