We Want Land to Live - Making Political Space for Food Sovereignty

Explores the current boundaries of radical approaches to food sovereignty - a concept that expresses the universal right to food. Amy Trauger's research combines ethnography, observation, field notes, and interviews to help us understand the material and definitional struggles surrounding the decommodification of food and the transformation of the global food system's political-economic foundations.
