Beskrivning

Our food systems - the way we produce, market and consume food - are part of the political, social, economic, ecological and cultural fabric of our communities. As such, the aim of this book is to explore the development of sustainable food systems in the Global South. We analyse the current state of affairs, identify challenges and assess existing policies and frameworks. By conducting this comprehensive analysis, the authors offer actionable insights and guidance to stakeholders involved in food governance and management, including policymakers, researchers, and practitioners particularly in the Global South. This book is also of interest to a wider audience to appreciate, compare and contrast these practices and their applications for sustainable development drawing on different methodologies, analytical frames, contexts and settings. This edited volume provides reviews, primary research findings and methodologies that will deepen and broaden insights into food systems, vulnerabilities and sustainable policy frameworks in the Global South. The book is essential reading for researchers, scholars and policymakers in the fields of agricultural economics, sustainable development, food security and global studies and can also be used by graduate and advanced undergraduate students studying courses related to agricultural economics, environmental studies, international development and public policy.
