5. *Toward food sovereignty: Reclaiming autonomous food systems [pdf]
http://www.iied.org/natural-resource...sues/food-and-
agriculture/multimedia-publication-towards-food-sovereignty-re

The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) has
gone above and beyond in crafting this multimedia book that brings
together full color photo illustrations and linked video and audio
files. The work was
finished in 2009, and it "describes the ecological basis of food and
agriculture, the social and environmental costs of modern food systems,
and the policy reversals needed to democratize food systems." Visitors
will note that examples are drawn from all over the world, and it's easy
to download the various chapters for offline consultation.

The chapter sections include
"Local adaptive management of food-producing environments" and
"Strengthening civil society". Anyone with an interest in public health,
community organizing, and civil society will find a great deal to learn
from this publication. [KMG]
