Description
Summary:<p>The main characterizes of agroecology alternatives is that beyond the starting point, all of them try to incorporate a relational side and to move away from the centrality of the market that is proposed from capitalist systems. However, when it´s necessary to analyze why consumers groups may not work, they are generally addressed from productivity perspectives. The analysis does not address relationships and a perspective of care and habitability within the initiatives themselves; we see these issues as key to their sustainability. So, in this work we are thinking in consumer groups from a feminist approach, which puts on the table issues in our view not taken into account when concluding that this is an exhausted model.</p>
