The Political Economy of Emergency: Postcolonialism, Crisis Governance and Decolonial Alternatives
The political rhetoric surrounding the Horn of Africa is perpetually framed through narratives of crisis, tragedy and emergency. These labels, rather than simply being used to describe instability, function as tools of governance to normalise dysfunction and entrench cycles of dependency. Drawing on postcolonial frameworks, the discourse interrogates how such crisis narratives obscure and ignore structural issues. Further, this sustains and promo…
Rights off the Table: Exploring Food Relief Governance in Australia through a Human Rights Lens
Australians increasingly depend on food relief due to various factors, including the cost of living crisis. The charitable provision of food relief has become the major national response to food insecurity at the individual and household levels. Legal scholarship is yet to investigate how food relief is governed in Australia. This article develops a human rights-based analytical framework to assess Australia’s governance of the food relief system…
Don’t mince words”: Analysis of problematizations in Australian alternative protein regulatory debates
Alternative proteins, including plant-based and cell-based meat and dairy analogues, are discursively positioned as a new form of meat and dairy and as a solution to the myriad of issues associated with conventional animal agriculture. Animal agricultural industries across various nations have resisted this positioning in regulatory spaces by advocating for laws that restrict the use of meat and dairy terms on the labels of alternative proteins p…
An argument for pandemic risk management using a multidisciplinary One Health approach to governance: An Australian case study
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the subsequent COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant global impact. However, COVID-19 is just one of several high-impact infectious diseases that emerged from wildlife and are linked to the human relationship with nature. The rate of emergence of new zoonoses (diseases of animal origin) is increasing, driven by human-induced environmental changes that threaten biodiversity on a global scale. This increase i…
Towards systemic solutions to food waste: Creative destabilisation and escaping food waste lock-in
Conceptualizing the Transnational Regulation of Plastics: Moving Towards a Preventative and Just Agenda for Plastics
This article categorizes and evaluates how regulatory regimes conceptualize plastics, and how such conceptualizations affect the production, consumption, and disposal of plastics. Taking a doctrinal and policy-oriented approach, it identifies four 'frames' - that is, four distinct and coherent sets of meanings attributed to plastics within transnational regulation - namely, plastics as waste to be managed; a material to be prevented; a good (or w…
Contesting and reinforcing the future of ‘meat’ through problematization: Analyzing the discourses in regulatory debates around animal cell-cultured meat
This paper draws attention to how ‘problems’ were constructed at the USDA-FDA Joint Public Meeting on Use of Animal Cell Culture Technology in 2018 and the implications of these discursive constructs for the governance of animals in food systems. The findings demonstrate what problems animal cell-cultured meat has been positioned as the solution to, and what problems emerge from this new technology that regulators are expected to respond to. The …
The “Prevention Paradox”: Food waste prevention and the quandary of systemic surplus production
Responding to the problem of ‘food security’ in animal cruelty policy debates: Building alliances between animal-centred and human-centred work on food system issues
From "Meat Culture" to "Cultured Meat: Critically Evaluating the Contested Ontologies and Transformative Potential of Biofabricated Animal Material on Culture and Law
Introduction According to its proponents and developers, we will soon be consuming animal flesh that has been manufactured outside of an animal's body using a suite of technologies and processes that fall under the broad banner of biofabrication. This flesh, termed "clean meat" by proponents, is expected to be safer, healthier, victimless and far more environmentally benign than flesh derived from an animal's body within intensive animal agricult…
