Drawing on case studies from Canada, the United States, Europe, and New Zealand, this edited collection showcases promising ways forward for civil society actors to engage in governance. The authors address topics including: the variety of forms that governance engagement takes from multi-stakeholderism to co-governance to polycentrism/self-governance; the values and power dynamics that underpin these different types of governance processes; effective approaches for achieving desired values and goals; and, the broader relationships and networks that may be activated to support change. By examining and comparing a variety of governance innovations, at a range of scales, the book offers insights for those considering contemporary food systems and their ongoing transformation.It is suitable for food studies students and researchers within geography, environmental studies, anthropology, policy studies, planning, health sciences and sociology, and will also be of interest to policy makers and civil society organizations with a focus on food systems.Routledge Studies in food, society and the environment.Food supplyCanadaFood securityCanadaCivil societyCanadaSocial movementsCanadaGovernancecontemporary food systemssocial movementsFood supplyFood securityCivil societySocial movements338.1972Andrée Peteredt1356424Andrée Peter1970-Clark Jill K.Levkoe Charles Z.UkMaJRUBOOK9910309955303321Civil society and social movements in food system governance3360944UNINA
