近几十年来，食品政策的一个关键特征是企业零售商崛起为核心参与者。我们在20世纪90年代对零售商和食品质量监管的研究表明，监管是双重的。1这一双重制度涉及一个由国家(国家和地方)控制和监督的公共管制和空间系统，并通过地方当局的环境健康和CER强制执行；以及一个由企业零售商领导并通过其国家和国际食品供应链实施的新兴的私人组织的质量系统。我们认为，20多年的政府放松监管和企业零售业的崛起，已经形成了一种二元监管格局。证据表明，通过公共和私人监管系统的双重功能，任何新的国家或国际组织的公共职能都需要对私人监管企业零售商的复杂供应链系统敏感。在本文中，我们提供了对最近一段时期(1999±2002)的初步分析，在这段时期，布鲁塞尔和欧盟成员国在食品政策上进一步交织在一起，从表面上看，随着英国食品标准局(FSA)和欧洲食品安全局(EFSA)的成立，这将表明公众对食品质量和安全的兴趣更加强烈。有
A key feature of food policy in recent decades has been the rise of the corporate retailers as central players. Our research in the 1990s on retailers and the regulation of food quality identi® ed a dual system of regulation. 1 This dual system involved a publicly regulated and spatial system controlled and monitored by the state (both national and local) and enforced through the environmental health o cers in local authorities; and an emergent privately organised quality system led by the corporate retailers and implemented through their national and international food supply chains. More than two decades of government deregulation and corporate retailing ascendancy, we argued, had produced a dualistic regulatory terrain. The evidence suggested, through the dual functions of public and privately regulated systems, that any new nationally or internationally organised public functions would need to be sensitive to the complex supply chain systems of private regulation of corporate retailers.In this article we present a preliminary analysis of the most recent period (1999±2002), a period which has seen a further intertwining between Brussels and EU member states on food policy, and which, on the face of it, would suggest the rea rmation of a stronger public interest in food quality and safety, with the setting up of the Food Standards Agency (FSA) in the UK and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in Europe.
