Abstract
Os autores reconhecem que a discussão em torno dos organismos geneticamente modificados (OGMs), apresentada tanto na literatura científica como na mídia brasileira é, em geral, altamente tendenciosa a favor da liberação desses produtos. Raros são os artigos que questionam profundamente os efeitos, no Brasil, de uma possível introdução desses organismos geneticamente modificados, seja do ponto de vista técnico, social, econômico, ou político. O objetivo geral do artigo foi, com base na literatura existente sobre o assunto, tentar preencher algumas dessas lacunas, consideradas extremamente importantes para o processo de avaliação. Os autores tentaram também apontar algumas das formas de viés que a mídia apresenta em relação aos OGMs. O estudo conclui que, embora os argumentos apresentados a favor dos OGMs possam ser facilmente rechaçados de um ponto de vista técnico, a transformação dos mesmos em uma realidade mercadológica depende, acima de tudo, de uma ordem social comandada pelo capital, hoje representado principalmente pelas grandes corporações e seus aliados, a começar pelo Estado. Esta é a causa principal do viés encontrado na mídia.
The authors recognize that the discussion about genetically modified organisms (GMOs), presented by Brazilian scientific literature as well as the media is, in general, highly biased towards approval of these products. Very few articles go deeper into questioning the effects of a possible introduction of these genetically modified organisms in Brazil, be it from a technical, social, economic, or political viewpoint. The general objective of the article was to try, based on the existing literature on the subject, to fulfill some of these omissions, considered extremely important to the evaluation process. The authors also tried to point out some of the ways of bias used by the media with respect to GMOs. The main conclusion of the study was that, although the presented arguments in favor of GMOs can be easily rejected from a technical viewpoint, the transformation of GMOs into a commercial reality depends, above all, upon a social order commanded by capital, presently represented mainly by large corporations and their allies, beginning with the State. This is the most important cause for the bias found in the media.
