autonomia alimentaria: food autonomy
As Arturo Escobar puts it "In Colombia for instance, movements prefer to use autonomia alimentaria (food
autonomy) which is somewhat different to food sovereignty. Food
sovereignty tends to put the emphasis on the national level, so a county
might say we basically produce food for the population blah blah blah,
that’s not good enough. There has to be food autonomy locally,
regionally, nationally." (from this great interview with Arturo about alternatives to development)
