转基因的标识管理问题初探

Research on Labeling Management Problem of Genetically Modified Products

转基因标识需要满足消费者的知情权,同时不应扭曲消费者的购买倾向。当前,中国转基因产品市场的标识情况较为混乱,食品标识不规范、存在误导性等问题凸显。造成标识管理不规范的原因在于,中国关于转基因标识制度的立法存在不足,且在实践中存在执法不严、查处难度大、媒体报道不恰当等问题。转基因标识制度存在的问题折射出公众对转基因食品形成的非理性社会心理认知,需要通过完善法律、政策制定等途径进行正向引导及纠正。为此,要大力加强相关法律法规的制定工作,加大制度规范和行政执法力度,进一步规范媒体报道行为。

GMO labeling needs to satisfy consumers'right to information,and it should not distort consumers'purchasing tendencies.At present,the labeling situation of our country's GMO market is relatively confusing,food labeling is unregulated,and misleading food labeling is serious.The reason for the unregulated label management is that there is insufficient legislation on GMO label system in our country,and in practice there are problems such as unstrict enforcement of laws,difficulty in handling and punishment,and inappropriate media reports.The problems of GMO labeling system reflect the public's irrational social psychological perception of GMO food,which needs to be positively guided and corrected through the improvement of laws and policy formulation.To this end,it is necessary to vigorously strengthen the formulation of laws and regulations,increase institutional norms and administrative enforcement,and further standardize the media's reporting behavior.
