Transgênicos: Uma Nova Reconfiguração do Trabalho e da Natureza pela Agricultura Capitalista

Abstract

O artigo consiste em analisar algumas peculariedades quanto ao uso da transgenia (produtos transgênicos ou organismos geneticamente modifi cados) na agricultura brasileira, notadamente o complexo temporal e espacial de sua prática dominante no sistema agrícola do país. Analisamse, para tanto, os problemas ambientais e socioeconômicos que agregam a essa biotecnologia agrícola, cuja abordagem teórica refere-se à defi nição de natureza cunhada por Karl Marx e suas teorias sobre a sociedade, a economia e a política aplicada à agricultura europeia capitalista do século XIX. Ao fi nal, são expostas as considerações conclusivas sobre o tema.

Prohibition to add aroma and flavor to smoking products : what is the limit of the regulatory power of the brazilian health regulatory agency ?

“…An example of precaution is, as a principle, the standardization on Genetically Modifiable Organisms, given the uncertain danger of intentional consequences (characteristic of the introduced gene) and unintentional ones (whether they are predictable or not) that may arise from them. 8 The prerogatives and powers of the Public Administration are guided by the public interest, to which the individual must submit and follow, such as the prerogative of self-enforceability that allows a public health officer to prohibit a commercial establishment from selling food unfit for consumption, regardless of a court order. For the sake of justice and common well-being, the state confers a series of powers and prerogatives that can combine its actions with those of the private sector to achieve these tasks.…”
