Food regime analysis

'Food regime analysis' is the name given to the most amazing research literature on the historic governance of the agri-food system. Don't miss out! Key authors are Philipp McMichael, Harriet Friedmann and Tony Weis.

If I ever again have some spare time to blog I will sum it up for the Portuguese audience...

Just an extract of how it all started...
"In this stage early states have appropriated rights to land, thereby excluding the preceding population from access to it by force."
Seems impossible, doesn't it? Unfortunately also seems to be pure fact.
