Part 3 Counter-hegemonic agri-food governance structures

Part 2 has discussed different forms of direct and indirect market arrangements which give importance to values such as ecological balance and fairness.264 What distinguishes these production–distributional channels from conventional market channels, based on price competitiveness, are the different forms of governance structures which ensure that agri-food practices are embedded in counter-hegemonic values. First, section 3.1 discusses counter-hegemonic market regulations and informal social relations which govern sustainable agri-food production–distribution. Section 3.2 then discusses counter-hegemonic movements’ attempts to challenge hegemonic agri-food policy and legal governance structures at local, national and global levels. This section also argues that their extent of success is dependent on the political situation and the strength of civil society at that particular period of time.
