In Eating Tomorrow (The New Press, 2019) Timothy A. Wise explores how agribusiness effectively controls food policy by supporting corporate interests rather than working to eliminate starvation and foster sustainable food production. Wise is a senior researcher at the Small Planet Institute, where he directs the Land and Food Rights Program. He is also a senior research fellow at Tufts University’s Global Development and Environment Institute, where he founded and directed its Globalization and Sustainable Development Program.

This event is organized by the UCLA Institute for Research on Labor and Employment and co-sponsored by the Center for Mexican Studies and CSRC.

This event is free and open to the public.
