Framings of science and ideology: organic food labelling in the US and Sweden

Article Abstract:

The organic food labeling debates in Sweden and the United States are highlighted to compare two different policy discourse climates on the basis of interviews, documents, and websites of governmental and non-governmental organizations. The study explores the different pathways towards frame-resolution and show that increased awareness of the interdependence of ecology and politics need not entail public resignation that policy and decisions are inevitably arbitrary.

The study highlights that while the fate of these interim radioactive waste storage projects is still unclear, energy and national security realities dictate that the continued deferment of the nuclear waste storage issue is no longer a viable option.
