    Worlds apart: The WTO’s Agreement on Agriculture and the right to food in developing countries
    in International Political Science Review , vol. 34, n. 1, january ,  2013 ,  21-38
    ABSTRACT: This article explores the implications of the World Trade Organization’s Agreement on Agriculture for the right to food in the global South. In a context in which a worldwide backlash has developed against the World Trade Organization (WTO), the politics of the Doha Round negotiations are analyzed from a food rights perspective. It is argued that since 2004 attention in the WTO has shifted from overarching human rights concerns toward a focus on technical detail constraining developing countries from acting to respect, protect, and fulfill the right to food.
