Journal Symposium – Law and Food Systems: Institutional Pathways toward a New Paradigm?

An opportunity for academic innovators to dialog with food industry stakeholders, this day-long Symposium will feature presentations of articles focusing on insights into the challenges and potential solutions for creating a food regulatory regime that is more responsive to the realities on the ground as experienced by the multiple stakeholders.  Discussants will critique the papers, and attendees will have access to the material in advance, in order to enhance informed debate. Final versions of the articles will be considered for publication in the Food and Drug Law Journal’s Symposium issue.

Keynote: Blueprint for a National Food System

The Blueprint is a research project jointly conducted by Harvard’s Food Law and Policy Clinic and University of Vermont’s Center for Agriculture and Food Systems. Authors Emily Broad Leib and Laurie Beyranevand focus on process rather than specific, substantive food policy outcomes. Their work is a comparative, in-depth look at the processes by which food strategies have been developed internationally, as well as how national strategies addressing other issue areas have been created in the United States. The final report will include a set of recommendations for how the United States can move toward a more comprehensive, integrated regulatory approach to food systems issues.
