- W166306656 abstract "Public debate about the ethical acceptability of genetically modified (GM) plants in general and GM food in particular, is highly polarized. Proponents of GM products passionately argue that novel gene technologies have the potential to contribute to more efficient agricultural processes, promote environmental sustainability, and curb malnutrition in the developing world. Opponents of novel plant biotechnologies, counter with equal vehemence, that GM products are unnatural, potentially harmful to humans, and capable of catastrophic environmental injury. As more uses for GM products are realised, and investment in plant biotechnologies continues to grow, both groups have stepped up advocacy of their respective views in academic and public forums. Both sides continue to be at loggerheads with one another, in trying to force the public to choose between their two opposing views. This research discusses in detail the most prominent arguments put forward in favour of, and in opposition to, the development and use of novel plant biotechnologies. It covers developing and industrialized contexts and describes the most likely applications of GM products within these contexts. The principal approach used in this analysis is one that embraces a spirit of pragmatism in its commitment to moving forward through the traditional impasse in which ethical and policy debates often finds themselves. This project sets out to clarify the issues, explore the most salient of these, and make suggestions about the best ways to move the debate forward. Early on in this work it is established that within specified constraints, novel plant technologies have the capacity to make a substantial contribution to agricultural practices, the environment, and the wider community. These assumptions are carried throughout the project and serve as points of departure in discussions about the ethical concerns raised by the application of novel genetic technologies to plants. One of the aims of this research is to produce a piece of work that can inform future policy decisions related to agricultural and environmental applications of GM technologies in Australia and elsewhere. I hope that the discussion presented here goes some way to achieving this goal and that it provides a coherent and plausible articulation of the issues." @default.
