FOOD DIVERSITY BETWEEN RIGHTS DUTIES AND AUTONO...

The book reflects on the issues concerning  on the one hand  the difficulty in feeding an ever-
increasing world population and  on the other hand  the need to build new productive systems
able to protect the planet from overexploitation. The concept of food diversity is a synthesis
of diversities: biodiversity of ecological sources of food supply  socio-territorial diversity
and cultural diversity of food traditions. In keeping with this transdisciplinary perspective 
the book collects a large number of contributions that examine  firstly the relationships
between agrobiodiversity  rural sustainable systems and food diversity  and secondly  the
issues concerning typicality (food specialties food identities)  rural development and
territorial communities. Lastly  it explores legal questions concerning the regulations aiming
to protect both the food diversity and the right to food  in the light of the political 
economic and social implications related to the problem of feeding the world population  while
at the same time respecting local communities' rights  especially in the developing countries.
The book collects the works of legal scholars  agroecologists  historians and sociologists from
around the globe.
