AbstractThe debate about cloning and genetic engineering, which began in 1997, has been strongly influenced by fictional narratives, scripts, and images. They in turn provided the seeds for the creation of various metaphors used in the debate, especially by the media. The flow of metaphors and images associated with cloning is now ebbing away and is being replaced by a new wave of images and metaphors deployed in arguments against genetically modified food. In both cases, cloning and genetically modified food, the media reports are interwoven with more or less explicit references to science fiction novels and films, from

Abstract in English: Nowadays, research and production of new food products based on genetic engineering technology are carried out to give benefit to the community. However, the production of food products through this technology has raised concerns in the determination of the legal status and the safety of the food products to be eaten by the consumer. Therefore, this article discusses genetically modified food (GMF) in the concept of halalan toyyiban based on the evaluation of maqasid hifz an nafs. This article uses qualitative design through the documentation study method by comparing and analyzing important information from selected sources such as al-Quran, fiqh books, scientific articles, fatwas, and journals from previous research. The results obtained showed that the GMF products are considered to meet the halalan toyyiban concept if the products follow the six principles in the concept which are halal, healthy, accepted by fitrah, safe, clean, and free from syubhah. This study also found that GMF products can be evaluated through three main maslahah (benefit) in maqasid syariah which is dharuriyyat (necessity), hajiyyat (will), and tahsiniyyat (perfection).   Abstract in Bahasa Malaysia: Pada masa kini, penyelidikan serta penghasilan produk makanan baru yang berasaskan teknologi kejuruteraan genetik dilaksanakan bagi memberi manfaat kepada masyarakat. Namun, penghasilan makanan melalui teknologi ini secara tidak langsung telah menimbulkan kemusykilan dalam penentuan status hukum dan keselamatan produk makanan yang akan dimakan oleh pengguna. Oleh itu, artikel ini membincangkan mengenai produk makanan ubah suai genetik (GMF) dalam konsep halalan toyyiban berlandaskan penilaian maqasid hifz an nafs. Artikel ini menggunakan reka bentuk kualitatif iaitu melalui kaedah kajian dokumentasi dengan membandingkan serta menganalisis maklumat penting daripada sumber yang dipilih seperti kitab suci al-Quran, kitab-kitab fiqh, artikel-artikel ilmiah, fatwa-fatwa serta jurnal dari penyelidikan terdahulu. Hasil kajian yang diperolehi menunjukkan produk GMF dianggap menepati konsep halalan toyyiban sekiranya ia mengikut keenam-enam prinsip konsep tersebut iaitu prinsip halal, berkhasiat, diterima fitrah jiwa sejahtera, selamat, bersih dan bebas syubhah. Kajian ini juga mendapati bahawa produk GMF dapat dinilai melalui tiga maslahah utama dalam maqasid syariah iaitu dharuriyyat (keperluan), hajiyyat(kehendak) dan tahsiniyyat (kesempurnaan).

Abstract Genetically modified food animals (GMFAs) are needed to address early the cumulative effects of livestock production on the environment and to accommodate future food demands. In 2020 China and the U.S., the world's two largest economies, embarked on regulatory reforms to boost the commercialization of such animals. However, gaining social acceptance of GMFAs for commercialization remains a global challenge. We propose a framework that focuses on social license for commercialization of GMFAs by defining four classes of improvement using precision genetics: 1) animals equivalent to natural variation to obtain the improved effect of cross-breeding (ENV); 2) animals with an inactivated gene that could occur via natural mutation (ENC-); 3) animals harboring a natural genetic sequence isolated from another species (ENC+); and 4) animals with synthetic sequences encoding novel genes (BNE). Our approach can guide regulators and the public to support orderly commercialization of genetically modified food animals.

The Impact

We experimentally test whether expert organizations on social media can correct misperceptions of the scientific consensus on the safety of genetically modified (GM) food for human consumption, as well as what role social media cues, in the form of “likes,” play in that process. We find expert organizations highlighting scientific consensus on GM food safety reduces consensus misperceptions among the public, leading to lower GM misperceptions and boosting related consumption behaviors in line with the gateway belief model. Expert organizations’ credibility may increase as a result of correction, but popularity cues do not seem to affect misperceptions or credibility.
