Recenzje

'Moyer and Josling must be congratulated for having shown the courage and endurance to write a follow-up book to their path-breaking first volume on agricultural policy reform in the US and the EU...this new book adds even more value to their way of analysing and interpreting agricultural policy decisions at important junctures in their historical development.' Professor Stefan Tangermann, University of Goettingen, Germany 'A new paradigm is emerging reflecting greater market orientation [for which] this is an excellent and very useful volume.' C. Ford Runge, Distinguished McKnight University Professor, University of Minnesota, USA 'The premise of this book is excellent...this book remains of great value to anyone wishing to understand either or both agricultural policy reform, and the links between national and international policy discussions...' European Foreign Affairs Review
