Abstract

Over the last several decades, the growth in the development, cultivation, and consumption of genetically modified organism (GMO) foods has been dramatic in some areas of the world while strongly resisted in others. This paper discusses how some major multinational corporations and international political organizations have influenced this pattern of growth and how recent developments in Guatemala, India, and the United States are raising new questions about the political economy of GMO foods, in general, that may impact the future direction of the production and use of these foods around the world.
