Abstract
Today, from a legal point of view, although food has been recognized as a human right by international law and the domestic law of many societies, it, like other welfare rights in practice and opinion, is still disputed. Especially by changing the face of governments and abandoning the theory of welfare state and the tendency of governments to regulate and avoid direct interference and the undisputed influence of transnational corporations in all social spheres, as well as the pessimism of developing governments of right-wing discourses that always It challenges governments, and thousands of similar cases have created parallel discourses alongside the right to food discourse. One of these discourses, which has a historical background, is the food paradigm as a guiding commodity that considers food not as a right but as a valuable commodity. This market-oriented approach believes that the duty of governments is not a legal obligation to provide healthy and adequate food, but governments are obliged to create the necessary conditions for the economic development of society, which will improve the food security of society.
