This book provides theoretically-informed and empirically-rich accounts of the ways in which formerly-colonialised peoples conceptualise and practice alternatives food networks. It explores whether and how alternatives to globalizing industrial food networks can even exist in countries and regions long characterised by externally-led forms of capital accumulation and enduring hierarchies of modernity. This book furthers our understanding of how, why and where alternatives to the globalising industrial food system emerge and thrive, or do not.
