 diana University

DESCRIPTION:Professor Yasuda explores why China’s food safety system is 
 failing despite concerted state efforts to reform its regulatory framework
 . Rather than pointing to lack of state capacity\, level of economic devel
 opment\, or corruption\, the study seeks to gain analytical leverage from 
 the often cited but understudied notion that China’s scale lies at the c
 ore of its governance challenges. Cross-sectoral illustrations in the avia
 tion\, fisheries\, and environmental sectors in China highlight how scale 
 politics impact many other economic sectors within China\; and cross-natio
 nal comparisons of Europe\, India\, and the United States suggest that the
  politics of scale framework may engage debate about contentious policy ar
 enas and regulatory outcomes in the world's large and complex markets beyo
 nd China.
