- Abstract
This article proposes to address the issue of agri-environmental policy change in the post-Fordist conjuncture. The aim is to analyze agricultural-environmental governance change as expressive of the environmentally and socially contradictory character of neo-liberalism. Firstly, the article explores the relationship between the emergence of post-Fordism, the rise of environmentalism, and selective pressure to sustain the socio-cultural fabric of rural areas. It then explores the politico-economic and ecological bases for such differential invocation of exceptionalism. The article concludes with a call for exploration of agri-environmental governance models marginalized in the World Trade Organization.
