The Impact of International Agreements on European Union Food Law
European Food and Feed Law Review
(2016)
Abstract
This paper discusses how international agreements affect the development of Food Law in both MemberStates and the EU itself. The relevance of this topic lies in the major structural changes currently affecting the whole agri-food system as a result of two conflicting trends which are more than just political or economic: on the one hand, the seemingly inevitable process of globalization, and on the other, the growing trend towards (re)localizing production, trade and consumption.
