It has become increasingly clear over the past quarter century that almost all aspects of the global food system are dominated by a combination of corporate agribusiness, wealthy people in both industrialized and developing countries, and the financial institutions and national governments that guide and support them.
The thesis of this book is that the primary responsibility for improving the failing global food system rests with these persons and institutions. They control the system, reap most of its benefits, and make and enforce the rules for its operation. Much of this power is exercised without accountability. Such exercise - indeed, the existence of such power - is basically undemocratic and unethical. It must be challenged and changed.
