Food safety has never been as prevalent as it is today, but periodic crises have instilled consumer anxiety and eroded trust in the agro-industrial system. The diverse nature of these crises poses challenges for governments and industry in predicting and addressing them effectively. This book delves into the theoretical and empirical relationship between risk and food, utilizing case studies from Japan and China.
Part I explores the interplay between theoretical perspectives and decision-making processes. It theorizes the connections between food and risk, analyzing decision-making in the context of risks and governance. The book assesses the relationship between food risks, governance systems, and economic decisions, exploring concepts such as the pact of nutrition and the theory of weak signals.
Part II presents case studies from China and Japan in the aftermath of recent crises, including the milk powder scandal in China and the food safety challenges following the Fukushima nuclear accident and tsunami in Japan. This book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, academics, policymakers, and enthusiasts in the fields of sociology, economics, food studies, Chinese studies, and Japanese studies, as well as risk and safety theories.
