From Short Food Supply Chains to Sustainable Agriculture in Urban Food Systems: Food Democracy as a Vector of Transition

Abstract: Abstract:In industrialized nations, local food networks have generally been analyzed through alternative food systems, in spite of the fact that they are much more diverse than this would imply. In France, 'short food chains' are both a continuation of a long tradition and a recent trend which now extends beyond activists, to consumers and producers as well. This paper will explore the conditions under which these chains can change the practices and knowledge of ordinary actors in urban food systems, from prod… Show more

“…Although publications concerning sustainability transitions in agriculture are increasing [6,[15][16][17][18][19], only a few publications address agro-food systems [9,10,[20][21][22] and much less address them in an urban context [23][24][25]. Even less publications focus on food niches in urban agro-food systems [5,12,26,27].…”

“…As pointed out above, only a few publications address sustainability transitions in agro-food systems [9,10,[20][21][22] and much less in an urban context [23][24][25], although publications concerning sustainability transitions in agriculture are increasing [6,[15][16][17][18][19]. In this section, we tackle the literature analyzing and explaining context-related niche development in agro-food systems and beyond.…”

“…However, some papers address different agriculture sub-sectors; for instance, Santhanam-Martin et al [58] analyse the relation between natural landscape and livestock. Interestingly, there are also some research articles that deal with urban agriculture [59] and urban food systems [60][61][62][63]. Alternatively, the topical focus of the research is on transition in the use of some agricultural inputs such as fertilizers [64].…”

“…Es decir, de forma paralela a las preocupaciones ambientales y de seguridad alimentaria ha emergido una tendencia que apunta a la resignificación de los vínculos sociales con el territorio (Chiffoleau et al, 2016;Corsi y Novelli, 2016). Estos elementos representan insumos para las políticas económicas y pueden ser aprovechados para dar un mayor valor agregado a la comercialización de productos emergentes con modos de producción particulares, como es el caso de la uchuva, donde aspectos como la participación de mano de obra femenina, la agricultura familiar y el emprendimiento se entremezclan con la riqueza natural y el paisaje de territorios rurales con gran potencial productivo Finalmente, en los casos analizados se encontró que los precios del producto son establecidos por cada productor sin intermediación de las organizaciones.…”
