The politics of glyphosate regulation: lessons from Sri Lanka’s short-lived ban. Dorlach, T. & Gunasekara, S. Globalization and Health, 19(1):84, November, 2023.

Paper doi abstract bibtex

Glyphosate is the world’s most used herbicide and a central component of modern industrial agriculture. It has also been linked to a variety of negative health and environmental effects. For instance, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans” in 2015. This has motivated widespread political demands for stricter glyphosate regulation but so far few governments have followed through.
