Book Synopsis
In the 19th century, a new sensitivity to food quality arose, which was reflected in a broad public debate. Increasingly industrialized food production, myriad novel products, and scientific advances created a feeling of insecurity among consumers. Vera Hierholzer explores the question of how the developing consumer society dealt with the growing distrust. It examines which new forms of securing trust have emerged and not only looks at legislation, but also the standard-setting of other actors. The study shows that a model of food regulation based on the division of labor has emerged in the interplay between the state, science, business and consumers.
