“…La alimentación es un tema complejo, distribuido en muchas disciplinas académicas, el estudio de los alimentos evoluciona continuamente con nuevas direcciones, metodologías, modelos e hipótesis. Por lo tanto, la confusión sobre conceptos de alimentos compite entre sí (Loke & Leung, 2013).…”

“…Las razones de esto son cuestiones como la especulación alimentaria, el acaparamiento mundial de la tierra, la destrucción del Medio Ambiente y el cambio climático. No obstante, en este debate no se pierde de viste las causas centrales de los problemas a largo plazo como la creciente orientación del mercado mundial a los modelos neoliberales, explotación masiva de recursos y la valorización capitalista de la agricultura (Loke & Leung, 2013).…”

El presente artículo contiene una revisión teórica para fundamentar una metodología preliminar de los indicadores que, permitan medir el concepto de Soberanía Alimentaria en Ecuador mediante un modelo estadístico, buscando las variables óptimas para dicha medición y a su vez variables indicadoras que regulen dicho modelo y los resultados esperados. La metodología que se propone en la investigación es cuantitativa, correlacional y causal, con recolección de datos de fuentes secundarias mediante bases especializadas en materia de Soberanía Alimentaria que sustentan al Banco Mundial. Mediante técnicas de análisis multivariado se comprobará la fiabilidad de los datos y la comprobación del modelo por la técnica de Múltiples Indicadores y Múltiples Causas (MIMIC) con el paquete informático RStudio.

“…After over a century of colonization, extractive tourism, destructive development, and violent militarism, the lands of Hawaiʻi are in dire need for environmental management and restoration (Akaka et al, 2019;Beamer, 2014;opua, 2014;Trask, 1999). A consequence of the history of Hawaiʻi, the islands depend on imports for over 80% of locally consumed foods, making the islands remarkably food insecure and therein vulnerable to market fluctuations and impacts from extreme climate events (Akutagawa et al, 2012;Lipper et al, 2014;Loke and Leung, 2013). And yet, as minimal as they are, current local food systems place considerable burden on the ʻ aina (land, that which feeds), as exemplified by depleting fish stocks from pollution and overfishing (Foo et al, 2021;Friedlander and Parrish, 1997).…”

Care, not incarceration: exploring the carcerality of fisheries enforcement and potential decolonial futures in Hawaiʻi

Current U.S. environmental management paradigms default to enforcement mechanisms that feed into the prison industrial complex, such as fines and jailing. To avoid contributing to and reinforcing mass incarceration and militarism, environmental management systems need to be transformed towards non-carceral forms. Additionally, working towards Indigenous sovereignty and decolonization, requires the strengthening of Indigenous relations with and governance over the land under the respective paradigms of Indigenous communities. This paper uses Hawaiʻi state fisheries law and programmatic efforts to address a central question: What is the extent and nature of carceral norms within conventional environmental management systems and how do they affect management outcomes? The study examines the current fisheries enforcement scheme in Hawaiʻi, tracing the embedded logic of carcerality, the degree to which ultimate sources of harm are addressed, and the concentration of governing powers. The results highlight how current fisheries enforcement is insufficient in caring for the seascape and, through its carceral approach, contributes to social injustices, particularly for K anaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians). Additionally, this paper demonstrates how current efforts in Hawaiʻi -Community-Based Subsistence Fisheries Areas (CBSFAs), the ʻAha Moku system, and the Makai Watch Programattempt to empower communities, but ultimately keep enforcement powers centralized within the State, thus perpetuating dependency on the criminal justice system. This study ends with a discussion on how future decarceral environmental governance systems could be designed to center Hawaiian relations & paradigms, particularly by prioritizing the values of reeducation, rematriation, and restoration.

“…This topic is especially relevant in Hawai'i, where the local food system is influenced by a complex history of land tenure, agriculture, and socio-cultural formation. This history has made values associated with food security and food sovereignty particularly prevalent (Loke and Leung, 2013a;Kent, 2016). The local food system has been stressed by the COVID-19 pandemic.…”

A history of agriculture and socio-cultural formation has led to a complex local food system in Hawai‘i. Customary agricultural systems built by Kānaka ‘Ōiwi (Indigenous Hawaiian) are now rested within a landscape filled with many different crops tended by farmers from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. Value systems dictating farming practices and crop selling decisions differ. In Hawai'i, values of food security or food sovereignty are of particular importance, especially as growing movements seek to increase local production and decrease the state's reliance on imported food in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, we systematically compare two different groups of farmers in Hawai'i and their values related to production and distribution. We then analyze the experiences of these two groups of farmers during the COVID-19 pandemic and their responses to them. The study is based on interviews with 22 Indigenous Kānaka ‘Ōiwi (IF) and Non-Indigenous local farmers (LF) from the island of O‘ahu. Ninety percent of IF say values associated with both food security and sovereignty drive their production and distribution decisions, while 75% of LF describe food security as the sole driver. Sixty percent of IF follow a non-profit economic model and emphasize cultural and educational values in their production decisions. LF follow profit-driven models and emphasize the influence the market has in their decisions. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, IF sold or donated the bulk of their crops to the local community through farm pickups, while restaurants were the primary buyers of LF crops. During the pandemic, the local community continues to be the primary recipient for IF, and due to the closure of many restaurants, LF have pivoted their sales to the community as well. Farmer interviews are augmented by three interviews with Hawai'i food system experts and relevant literature to suggest multiple pathways state agencies and local organizations could implement to support farmers from different backgrounds through COVID-19 and into the future.
