Kritik
"This book offers a comprehensive, multi-dimensional account of the global food system and the generation of a burgeoning food sovereignty counter-movement from crisis. Not only does the author provide a substantive mapping of the structuring and institutional politics of agribusiness from production to retailing; she also details the organising trajectory and culture of global opposition through cumulative networking and successful discursive reframing of what is at stake in a food insecure and environmentally challenged world. A didactic and challenging template to agri-food scholars and activists alike." - Philip McMichael, Professor of Development Sociology, Cornell University, USA

"A detailed insight into how the world's largest social movement has achieved structural and discursive power shifts in food politics in 20 years of campaigning for food sovereignty, offering an interesting and inspiring analysis of the movement's broad repertoire of action, including work with alternative media." - Sofia Monsalve Suàrez, Coordinator of Global Land Program, FIAN International

"We have a lot of work to do to recover our economies, ecosystems, and lives from the dictates of multi-national corporations. Vía Campesina is one of the most important models for doing this work and Alana has laboured to provide a thorough guide to their work and liberatory political concepts. Every sentence of Global Activism in Food Politics: Power Shift is either an indictmentor an inspiration." - Amory Starr, activist, sociologist, and documentary filmmaker.mehr
