| Synopsis: |
Through a set of thematic and case study chapters, this volume explores the contents, forms, and actors that characterize current opposition to the corporate neoliberal agri-food regime. Designed to generate a coherent, informed and updated analysis of resistance in agri-food, the book proposes a combination of empirical and theoretical contributions that elucidates the power of the neoliberal corporate system and the manner in which opposition has emerged and has been carried out. Contributions included in the volume analyze established forms and rationales of resistance including civic agriculture, consumer and community based initiatives, labor, cooperative and gender-based protest, struggles in opposition to land grabbing and ecological resistance. Also explored are the limits of these forms of resistance. In particular, the hegemonic role of the neoliberal ideology and the ways in which it has `captured' processes of resistance are illustrated. Through the exploration of the tension between legitimate calls for emancipation and the dominant power of Neoliberalism, the work contributes to the ongoing debate on the strengths and limits of neoliberalism in agri-food. It also engages critically with the outputs and potential outcomes of established and emerging resistance movements, practices, and concepts. |
