Abstract

In recent years, food safety problems have received a lot of attention on a global scale, and governments have regarded them as a key national strategic issue. This paper explores, how China’s food safety supervision policies have evolved since 1949 showing how the country's food safety supervision policy changed from the command-type food hygiene law enforcement system to the modernized governance mechanisms for food safety in this new era. Despite recent advancements within the realm of food safety regulation in China, certain issues still exist. It is suggested that government agencies should improve public awareness of monitoring, boost public involvement, exert more pressure on all parties to be responsible, and improve publicity and guidance. It not only helps to promote the development of a more rational and scientific food safety supervision system, but also facilitates the integration of China’s food safety supervision policy with its specific national conditions.
