粮食和农业部门是气候变化的主要促成因素，也特别容易受到气候变化最严重的影响。这意味着，随着新的治理议程的推出，一系列复杂的有争议的政治动态关系重大。一方面，在海洋资源领域大力推动“气候智能型农业"和相关举措，如蓝色经济的想法，试图将各种观点结合起来，解决这些生态和经济系统之间的相互关系。另一方面，批评者认为这些战略是在推广更多的同类政策，这些政策首先在气候-粮食系统中造成了压力。为了解决这些问题，这一特别论坛汇集了一系列文件，其中突出了处于这些辩论中心的三个相互重叠的主题，但这些主题尚未得到执行CSA倡议的人的充分承认：权力和利益在形成气候和粮食系统治理方法方面的作用;在治理举措中加强现有办法，主要是促进开放市场和技术的办法的方式;以及不平等问题的边缘化。
The food and agriculture sector is both a major contributor to climate change and especially vulnerable to its worst impacts. This means that much is at stake in what is a complex set of contested political dynamics as new governance agendas are rolled out. On one hand, there is a strong push for climate-smart agriculture' (CSA) and related initiatives in the area of marine resources such as the idea of the blue economy, as an attempt to bring a range of viewpoints together to address the interrelationship between these ecological and economic systems. On the other hand, critics see these strategies as promotion of more of the same kinds of policies that created stress in the climate-food system in the first place. To unpack these issues, this special forum brings together a collection of papers that highlight three overlapping themes that lie at the centre of these debates, yet which have not been fully acknowledged by those implementing CSA initiatives: the role of power and interests in shaping governance approaches to climate and food systems; the ways in which existing approaches, primarily those promoting open markets and technology, are reinforced in governance initiatives; and the sidelining of questions of inequality.
