“粮食主权”的流行涵盖了粮食系统内的一系列立场,干预和斗争,这首先证明了该术语的适应性。粮食主权的核心,但不完全,是关于群体的人作出自己的决定对粮食系统,这是一种谈论理论上知情的粮食系统的做法。由于人与人之间的差异,我们应该期待有关粮食主权的决定在不同的背景下会有所不同,尽管这些决定符合一套核心原则(包括妇女权利、共同反对转基因作物以及要求将农业从当前的国际贸易协定中删除)。在本文中,我们看看在北美土著斗争的背景下,在应用粮食主权的想法的摩擦分析点。我们认为,这有助于澄清粮食主权的核心主题之一:这是反殖民斗争的延续,即使在后殖民背景下。这样的检查有红利的学者粮食主权和土著政治:通过帮助问题化的概念粮食主权和后殖民,但也提出尖锐的问题,围绕性别的土著斗争。
The popularity of 'food sovereignty' to cover a range of positions, interventions, and struggles within the food system is testament, above all, to the term's adaptability. Food sovereignty is centrally, though not exclusively, about groups of people making their own decisions about the food system-it is a way of talking about a theoretically-informed food systems practice. Since people are different, we should expect decisions about food sovereignty to be different in different contexts, albeit consonant with a core set of principles (including women's rights, a shared opposition to genetically modified crops, and a demand for agriculture to be removed from current international trade agreements). In this paper we look at the analytical points of friction in applying ideas of food sovereignty within the context of Indigenous struggles in North America. This, we argue, helps to clarify one of the central themes in food sovereignty: that it is a continuation of anti-colonial struggles, even in post-colonial contexts. Such an examination has dividends both for scholars of food sovereignty and for those of Indigenous politics: by helping to problematize notions of food sovereignty and postcoloniality, but also by posing pointed questions around gender for Indigenous struggles.
