From animals in industrialized farming - but also those reared in supposedly higher-welfare practices - to low-wage essential workers, and from populations being marketed unhealthy diets to the natural ecosystems suffering daily degradation, each step of the process is built on some form of exploitation. While highlighting the broken system's continuities from European colonialism to contemporary globalization, the authors argue that the seeds of resilience, resistance, and inclusive manifestations of cultural resurgence are already being reflected in the day-to-day actions taking place in communities around the world. Emphasizing the need for urgent change, the book looks at how genuine democracy would give individuals and communities meaningful control over the decisions that impact their lives when seeking to secure this most basic human need humanely. Drawing on the perspectives of advocates, activists, workers, researchers and policy makers, Harris and Gibbs explore the politics of food in the context of capitalist globalization and the climate crisis, uncovering the complexities in our relationships with one another, with other animals, and with the natural world. --from publisher's website. 650 0 $a Food supply $x Climatic factors. 650 0 $a Food security $x Climatic factors. 650 0 $a Food supply $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Capitalism. 700 1 $a Gibbs, Terry, $d 1967- $e author. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717023731.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619010454.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E6A253DE084B11EFBCAD05DA2DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
