Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Business Ethics, Corporate Ethics, University of applied sciences, Cologne, language: English, abstract: The question has arisen of whether society is being protected from food that is making it sick, particularly whether if people are protected by the politics. How are the people – the consumers – seen in general from a company’s and from the politicians’ point of view? This is a general question asked based on the topic of food, sugar and a correlation between diseases and the prosperity of states. The question how the consumer is seen affects many other topics aside from food choices and possibilities of diseases. It is related to democracy, marketing and money. Does a responsible, accountable consumer exist? Who is taking his own decisions and who is influenced without noticing it, possibly with dire consequences? Which role do companies, politicians and science play?
