- Politicization, Deadlock, and Dispute: The Impacts of Post-1995 Linkages Between Codex Alimentarius Commission and the World Trade OrganizationThomas, Courtney Irene Powell (Virginia Tech Publishing, 2011-04-01)The Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) is an institution created from a vision shared by the administrations of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) and the World Health Organization (WHO) to develop science-based food safety standards and guidelines designed to protect consumer health and ensure fair trade practices. The Commission was established to develop “international scientific evaluation mechanisms that could provide the best possible science-based advice to member countries with periodic update[s] to assure that new scientific information was always taken into account in FAO/WHO recommendations” (Lupien 2000, 193). Therefore, the Codex Commissionʼs Statutes and Procedures are designed to ensure that it pursues risk assessment, management, and communication in order to minimize food-related health risks.

- A Contextual Approach to Political PhilosophyDaskal, Stephen (Virginia Tech Publishing, 2012-04-01)My aims in this paper are to describe and motivate the adoption of what I call a contextual approach to political philosophy. I will first provide a brief characterization of contextualism. I will then contrast contextualism against more common approaches to political philosophy, which I call idealist or schematic, and indicate the problems I see with those approaches and the relative advantages of contextualism. By doing this, I hope to demonstrate the need for further work exploring the possibilities of contextualism.
