Abstract
In the half century since its founding, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, or simply Codex, has established thousands of global standards that allow for food trade to move smoothly, even as world food production and trade have become hugely more complex than they were at the time of Codex’s founding. Codex’s success is due, certainly in part, to a set of ground rules and procedures that member countries agree to abide by when they become members. Collaboration and honest negotiation in good faith become more and more important as the membership demographics of Codex become more and more diverse – and as they more truly reflect the demographics of those countries that trade food globally. Continued good faith and increasing policy sophistication will be necessary to keep Codex on a necessarily continual growth curve.
