Abstract

The current WTO rules on agriculture make a travesty of the first Millennium Development Goal of reducing hunger. Unfortunately the Bali 'peace clause' provides only temporary relief for countries maintaining public food stockholdings and also tacitly acknowledges that such measures are 'illegal'. No compromise should be tolerated on this critical issue, says Jayati Ghosh.
