Politics of nanotechnologies in food and agriculture
The chapter discusses the reasons for the delay in the regulatory intervention
concerning nanotechnologies used in the agriculture and food sectors. The
main finding is that unregulated introduction of nanoinnovation into the food system
is due to the current neoliberal food policy and to the power struggles that
characterize the economic, social and political dynamics within the global supply
chain. Therefore, it is necessary to put the ‘question concerning technology’ at the
center of the regulatory debate in order to implement a regulatory system able to
face nanorisks. Which means looking at the way in which technology controls
power relationships within society. Attention should be shifted from efficiency to
power issues, and new technologies should be assessed from a political rather than
an economic or ethical perspective
