Using detailed case studies, historical mapping and legal analysis, the contributors show how various actors (farmers, civil society groups, government officials, international bodies) use or could use different legal tools (legislative, jurisprudential, norm-setting) on various scales (local, national, regional, global) to achieve structural changes in food systems. Section 1, Institutionalizing New Approaches, explores the possibility of institutionalizing social change through two alternative visions for change ? the right to food and food sovereignty. Individual chapters discuss Vía Campesina?s struggle to implement food sovereignty principles into international trade law, and present case studies on adopting food sovereignty legislation in Nicaragua and right to food legislation in Uganda. The chapters in Section 2, Regulating for Change, explore the extent to which the regulation of actors can or cannot change incentives and produce transformative results in food systems. They look at the role of the state in regulating its own actions as well as the actions of third parties and analyze various means of regulating land grabs. The final section, Governing for Better Food Systems, discusses the fragmentation of international law and the impacts of this fragmentation on the realization of human rights. These chapters trace the underpinnings of the current global food system, explore the challenges of competing regimes of intellectual property, farmers rights and human rights, and suggest new modes of governance for global and local food systems. The stakes for building better food systems are high. Our current path leaves many behind, destroying the environment and entrenching inequality and systemic poverty. While it is commonly understood that legal structures are at the heart of food systems, the legal academy has yet to make a significant contribution to recent discussions on improving food systems - this book aims to fill that gap. 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aPublic international law 606 $aInternational law 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aHuman Rights$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19020 606 $aSocial Structure, Social Inequality$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010 606 $aPublic International Law $3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19000 606 $aSources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19010 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aPublic international law. 615 0$aInternational law. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 14$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aHuman Rights. 615 24$aSocial Structure, Social Inequality. 615 24$aPublic International Law . 615 24$aSources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizations. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 676 $a333.7 702 $aLambek$b Nadia C.S$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aClaeys$b Priscilla$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWong$b Adrienna$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBrilmayer$b Lea$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298383803321 996 $aRethinking Food Systems$92525792 997 $aUNINA
