“…These studies are still scarce, but some research has already focussed on the perception of consumers, as in the study by Gutiérrez Pérez et al (2011), who evaluated the social representations that consumers form about different types of markets. Pérez Izquierdo et al…”

VIZCARRA BORDI, IVONVE y THOME-ORTIZ, HUMBERTO (2017). The consumer of food products in organic markets of central Mexico.British Food Journal, 119 (3) 558-574. The consumer of food products in organic markets of central Mexico Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to identify the characteristics of consumers of organic food, based on their motivations. Design/methodology/approach -A questionnaire based on the Food Choice Questionnaire was applied to a 656 consumers. A multivariate factor analysis and cluster analysis was performed to the data. Findings -Seven factors were identified: ecological concern; nutritional content; availability of natural products; sensory aspects; certifications, health and confidence; and economic aspects. Resulting clusters were named as: conscious and interested in certification; conscious with no interest in certification; opportunist in transition; unconscious opportunist. There are signs of different consumers. The consumers of these products are characterised by an interaction between hedonic and ethical motivations, where the most important motivation is environmental concern and the least important are the economic aspects.Research limitations/implications -The reduced number of alternative markets in Mexico limits the amplitude of the research. Practical implications -The work herein reported is pioneer and contributes to reduce the lack of studies on the motivations and characteristics of consumers of organic foods in Mexico. Findings may set a path for new research in other cultural contexts; as well as for more specific work in Mexico as of consumers of industrialised organic products. Social implications -Characterising consumers of organic foods will enable the development of these markets. Originality/value -Social studies of eating habits have taken place in European countries; and several works have been developed in other areas of the world to determine the way in which consumers build their preferences and food choice patterns. In Mexico, specifically in organic foods, studies have focussed in agrarian economics, but the analysis of motivations for choice has not been addressed. Therefore, it is important to research this issue given the relevance for consumers.

Popular and solidarity economy (PSE) organizations number around 5,280 throughout Ecuador, with the participation of 153,390 registered members. However, only 1.02% of these companies are community-based and operate in the food production and processing sector. This research aimed to determine the contribution of community-based companies (CBCs) to food sovereignty in the province of Tungurahua, using a mixed methodology including the use of interviews and surveys. The qualitative analysis integrated data on the features of this sector to observe their relationship with social, environmental, and economic dimensions using the RQDA package in R Studio. The results show that CBCs contribute to food sovereignty by adding value to locally produced products relevant to local traditions and culture. The social and environmental contributions of CBCs play a part in rural development. Thus, the promotion of CBCs in food production represents a mechanism through which to strengthen food sovereignty and preserve food production relevant to the local culture in these areas.

Ante este contexto, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue analizar las percepciones de los actores en los mercados alternativos del centro de México, desde la perspectiva de las convenciones sociales.…”

La separación entre la humanidad y la naturaleza ha pasado de ser sutil e inadvertida, a innegable y agresiva; de consumir para comer y sobrevivir, a depredar para saciar deseos creados y hedonistas, manifiestos en las aspiraciones desmedidas de comprar, poseer y pertenecer, y en la sistemática manipulación de la agroindustria a través de una gigantesca estrategia mercadológica, que en conjunto ha generado no solo enfermedades degenerativas, sino también no transmisibles, como malnutrición, desnutrición y obesidad. En este escenario, la obra que presentamos permite visibilizar a las cafeterías universitarias como un servicio alimentario de restauración colectiva, propio de la vida estudiantil y académica, así como la práctica de una dieta de la milpa que se diversifica hasta las farmacias vivientes. Asimismo, recupera los indicadores de la Responsabilidad Social Universitaria, para concretarlos en una cafetería sostenible y agroecológica. Los trabajos integrados en esta obra son un llamado a esta consigna en pro de la calidad de vida o buenos vívires de las personas y de la comunidad de vida integral. Su lectura promete propuestas realistas e inspiradoras para provocar en cada persona que las conozca y ponga en marcha, un ser de cambio real, responsable y comprometido. La presente publicación busca mostrar la trascendencia del sentipensar, no solo estudiantil, sino de cualquier comensal, a fin de reconocer las propias ataduras y trampas del consumismo, que encadenan estilos de vida promovidos por las grandes industrias de ultraprocesados vegetales, lácteos y carnes. El equipo que colaboró en la obra cuenta con perfiles diversos relacionados con la antropología, gastronomía, derecho ambiental, ética animal, agroecología, activismo social y políticas públicas, desde diversos institutos de investigación, tanto de México como de Colombia y España.
