000401 Maude Barlow and Chee Yoke Ling - Corporate Designed Food

Promises of green revolutions and record harvests is the justification for genetically modifying crops. A handful of giant global corporations dominate agriculture. They represent, according to Vandana Shiva, the noted Indian environmentalist, the latest form of imperialism. Agribusiness contends it just wants to feed hungry people. What's underneath the plate of genetically engineered food? Wholesome nutritious edibles or a recipe for more profits? Maude Barlow is one of Canada's leading activists on trade issues. She was a leader in the successful struggle to stop the Multilateral Agreement on Investment and the WTO Seattle meeting. She is Director of the Ottawa-based Council of Canadians.

Chee Yoke Ling is a lawyer with the Third World Network in Malaysia. She is an expert in international law and is involved in efforts to prevent transnational corporations from patenting seeds.
