A toothless chihuahua? The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, neoliberalism and supermarket power in Australia
During the Senate Inquiry into ‘milk price wars’ in 2011, Senator Nick Xenophon accused the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) of being ‘less effective than a toothless Chihuahua’. This follows the ACCC’s lack of action regarding the reported abuse of market power of Australia’s supermarket duopoly, where an extensive inquiry into the competitiveness of retail prices in 2008 found grocery retailing to be ‘workably competitive’ …

Supermarket power, own-labels, and manufacturer counterstrategies
Financialization in agri-food supply chains
Introduction to symposium on the changing role of supermarkets in global supply chains
Supermarkets and Agro-industrial Foods
There is increasing evidence of a weakened platform of consumer trust in mass produced food products. The resistance shown by consumers to the agro-industrial paradigm is evident in an emergent phase of reflexive consumerism, public reactions to an overly-concentrated retail sector and the rise of alternative food networks such as farmers' markets and organic box schemes. Supermarkets are responding strategically by aiming to manufacture new trus…

Symbolic and Sustainable Landscapes
Neither ‘family’ nor ‘corporate’ farming
Quality Assurance, Deregulation and Participation in Policy Making
Resource management decision making at the local farm enterprise level is located within a global context. These layered structures of globalization and the uneven effects of agricultural restructuring and deregulation constrain and challenge both short and long term planning strategies. This paper analyses interviews with women in dairy and vegetable production in Tasmania and Queensland and delineates their perception of globalisation, its inst…
From agricultural modernisation to agri-food globalisation
Agriculture has been central to accounts of Thailand's modernisation and the rise of the national development project between the 1940s and the 1970s. However, the role of agriculture in the waning of national development is rarely explored critically in the Thai context. This paper focuses on agriculture and the role of the state in the shift from national development to globalisation. The first part of the paper examines the beginnings of Thail…

Introduction. The Global Restructuring of Food and Agriculture
This special edition of Rural Sociology focuses on processes of agri-food restructuring in Australia and New Zealand. The authors in the collection are all members of the Agri-food Research Network,a loose grouping of researchers who came together in 1993 in order to analyze the roles and relationships of agri-food industries in the Australasia region during a period of major change. The researchers were drawn from a wide range of disciplines, bu…
Global Sourcing and Retail Chains
In the decades following the Second World War supermarkets and retail outlets in North America, Western Europe, and Australasia became the most important sites for the sale of food products. This dominance in food sales was generally confined to the retail sector as supermarkets tended to act as a nexus or distribution point between agri-food producers and consumers. In the 1970s this relationship began to break down as supermarkets moved up the …

Agrobiotechnology in Australia
To date, the debate on agrobiotechnological change in Australia has focused largely on the commercial aspects, and more recently the regulatory aspects, of the technology. Policy-makers have relied heavily on overseas trends, as well as proponent scientists and industry, to formulate R&D policy, and privatisation to implement policy. As a result, many social, political and environmental issues have been neglected. To correct this imbalance, and t…
