This book explores connections between activist debates about food
sovereignty and academic debates about alternative food networks.
The ethnographic case studies demonstrate how divergent histories
and geographies of people-in-place open up or close off
possibilities for alternative/sovereign food spaces, illustrating
the globally uneven and varied development of industrial capitalist
food networks and of everyday forms of subversion and
accommodation. How, for example, do relations between alternative
food networks and mainstream industrial capitalist food networks
differ in places with contrasting histories of land appropriation,
trade, governance and consumer identities to those in Europe and
non-indigenous spaces of New Zealand or the United States? How do
indigenous populations negotiate between maintaining a sense of
moral connectedness to their agri- and acqua-cultural landscapes
and subverting, or indeed appropriating, industrial capitalist
approaches to food? By delving into the histories, geographies and
everyday worlds of (post)colonial peoples, the book shows how
colonial power relations of the past and present create more
opportunities for some alternative producer-consumer and
state-market-civil society relations than others.
