Abstract

The future for food security is more uncertain now than in any recent decade. After more than 70 years of increasing liberalization and globalization of markets and significant success in reducing food insecurity, there seems to be a pause that threatens to both destabilize the global world order and knock back the effort to mobilize science to create a more food secure world. Governments, industry and citizens are pulling back from using competitive markets to promote their interests, raising fears that we are moving into what some have coin a ‘neo-medieval’ world of special interests.
