摘要:As genetically modified food commodities have entered markets in recent years, domesticregulators have attempted to manage consumer, environmental and citizen concerns aboutthese new products. One result has been incomplete and at times inconsistent domestic reg-ulation, which has created international conflicts about market access. A number of interna-tional institutions have attempted in recent years to bridge the gulf between exporters andimporters. This paper reviews recent international developments and offers options for dif-ferent strategies for reducing the current tensions in international markets.
