| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The issue of food security is a complex one, and, with the advancement of globalization, it is becoming ever more urgent. And as climate change rises to the top of the international agenda, the securitization of food issues is growing more complex. It has turned the spotlight on the issue of food security and introduces new challenges to every nation. Historically, China has been an agricultural country, and thus has always been concerned about food security, enacting various measures and policies over the years to protect its food supply. However, there are inherent uncertainties and many challenges in this area. To deal with the problem of food security caused by global climate change, China and other nations should rethink how they deal with food security, and establish a comprehensive food security strategy which engages with other strategies in economic development, agriculture and rural development, energy, water security and social development. |
