Genetically Modified Organisms:
the key tension in the debate around genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is the possible – and typically assumed – tension between safety and sustainability in using GMOs (genetic engineering and gene editing techniques) in the agri-food supply. This chapter presents the two sides of the GMO debate from a legal perspective by focusing on three sub ...
