ABSTRACT

While social and political movements are the scale of action most often identified with food sovereignty-related struggles, everyday provisioning practices are critical for sustaining the distinctiveness and relative autonomy of localised food systems. We examine gendered provisioning in a Colombian, Afro-descendent community as a case study of how food sovereignty is enacted in daily life. Women's everyday food provisioning practices nourish households, sustain socio-cultural and ecological relationships, and maintain greater self-sufficiency within market economy integration processes. Deeper analysis of gendered provisioning highlights complexities, power relationships and challenges within localised food systems and refines understandings of gender dimensions of food sovereignty.

摘要

虽然社会和政治运动是与粮食主权相关斗争最常见的行动规模，但日常供应实践对于维持本地化粮食系统的独特性和相对自主性至关重要。我们研究了哥伦比亚非洲裔社区的性别供应，作为食品主权如何在日常生活中实施的案例研究。妇女的日常食物供应实践滋养家庭，维持社会文化和生态关系，并在市场经济一体化进程中保持更大的自给自足。对性别供应的更深入分析突出了当地粮食系统中的复杂性、权力关系和挑战，并完善了对粮食主权性别层面的理解。
