Food policy. Parliamentary debates and supreme court decisions on food control

3.00 ECTS (2.00 SWS), SPL 7 - Geschichte
Continuous assessment of course work

The class will analyze the parliamentary debates on the Food Control Law of 1896 (LMG) and the supreme court decisions for its implementation. The debates in both houses of parliament extend over a period of more than 20 years, contain a wealth of references to scientific, political and social developments. The speakers within these debates position their strategies for food control into the context of existing best practices, i.e. regulations in other European states. As these debates have not yet been systematically studied, students will break new grounds with their own projects.
