      abstract = {Following an introduction explaining the genesis of the  paper, section II briefly reviews some relevant literature  and concepts. On the basis of this review, section III  develops an outline evolutionary model of policy  development. Section IV outlines the history and present  status of the EU policy (here illustrated by the cereals  policy which is taken as archetypal for the CAP as a whole)  within this framework. Thus, it characterises the policy  history in broad evolutionary terms, emphasising the  "fitness for purpose" of various manifestations of the  policy organism. The key conclusion from this section is  that the present policy situation cannot be described as  "fit" - it is subject to too much conflict between its  pheno-genotype and the present (rather new) policy  environment. This conclusion is in distinct contrast to  more conventional views about the status of the present  policy and to the current view from within the  policy-making bureaucracy. Section V develops some of the  implications of this analysis for the future development of  the policy. Section VI offers some broad conclusions.},
