Project meeting - Political economy of food price policy

Political economy of food price policy


This was the third and final meeting of participants in the Political Economy of Food Price Policy project, which is jointly led by UNU-WIDER, Cornell University, and the University of Copenhagen and partially supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The project aims to explain the political economy and policy-making processes underlying government responses to recent food price crises with a combination of case studies from both developing and developed countries as well as a variety of synthesis studies.
