Food safety, as a core issue related to national economy and people's livelihood, is not only related to the cornerstone of human survival and development, but also directly related to the physical health and life safety of the general public. Currently, food safety is facing unprecedented new challenges and risks. This collection of studies seeks to systematically review the previous related literature, understands multiple perspectives from different angles, such as consumer behaviour, corporate responsibility, information disclosure, etc., and conducts an in-depth inquiry into the field of food safety, analyses its root causes, reveals its potential impacts, and seeks practical solutions, which is undoubtedly of great practical significance and far-reaching social value.
This Research Topic seeks to explore insights; from a consumer behavioural perspective:
1.To study consumers' risk perception of food safety;
2.To study the behavioural mechanisms of food safety traceability information on consumer value creation, or participation in information sharing;
3.From the perspective of information dissemination, to study the impact of food safety network rumours on consumers' purchasing decision-making behaviour;
4.From the perspective of consumer self-interest, to explore the mechanism of consumer's willingness to pay influence on food safety information symmetry;
5. To explore consumers' concern and purchasing behaviour towards organic food in the post epidemic era.
From the perspective of the connotation/extension of corporate responsibility:
1.Diversified research on corporate social irresponsibility(CSIR) from a stakeholder perspective, e.g. analysing the equilibrium of various stakeholders from the perspective of an evolutionary game;
2.To study the spillover effect mechanism of corporate social irresponsibility (CSIR) under the related perspectives of competition effect and contagion effect.
From a disclosure perspective:
1.Exploring the impact of the characteristics of disclosure decision makers (e.g., corporate executives) on the quality of food safety information;
2.Exploring the impact study of corporate response to food safety crisis public relations;
3.Exploring new ideas of food safety governance from rule-based regulation to information-based regulation.
