This book, driven by a collective reflection within the framework of the World Forum for Alternatives, is dedicated to the problems faced by the Southern and Northern family agricultures in the current neoliberal era of financial capital domination worldwide, and to the revival of peasant struggles for their social emancipation and legitimate right of access to land and food. What is at stake is the challenge to reach food sovereignty and to build our societies at local, national and global levels, on principles of social justice, equality and real democracy.The Struggle for Food Sovereignty was initiated as an attempt to make sense of how these urgent global problems are manifested in the North and the South, and while there are common traits in how global capital goes after profit, the receptions on the ground differ. It is important for struggles in different parts of the world to develop a concerted understanding of the problems and prioritise strategies that take heed of the differences and share common visions for the future. With this in mind, authors from different continents have been invited to offer different reflections and to relate their local struggles to a global and long-term vision.
