Laburpena

Peripheral stakeholders, such as small food retailers that are not completely integrated in alternative food networks, show high potential for upscaling local food systems. We have been done fieldwork-based research in four different counties in Andalusia (Spain), using a mixed, qualitative/quantitative analysis. We have produced a typology of local stakeholders, regarding to their different strategies aimed at surviving amongst global and large-scale stakeholders. We also analyze the discourses that shape these strategies. The paper offers relevant insights on food governance and joint governance construction between academy, local stakeholders and policy-makers, in order to include conventional stakeholders into transitions to local sustainable food systems.
