This book, by a leading expert in urban agriculture, offers a genuine solution to today's global food crisis. By contributing more to feeding themselves, cities can allow breathing space for the rural sector to convert to more organic sustainable approaches. Biel's approach connects with current debates about agroecology and food sovereignty, asks key questions, and proposes lines of future research. He suggests that today's food insecurity - manifested in a regime of wildly fluctuating prices - reflects not just temporary stresses in the existing mode of production, but more profoundly the troubled process of generating a new one. He argues that the solution cannot be implemented at a merely technical or political level: the force of change can only be driven by the kind of social movements which are now daring to challenge the existing unsustainable order. Drawing on both his academic research and teaching, and 15 years' experience as a practicing urban farmer, Biel brings a unique interdisciplinary approach to this key global issue, creating a dialogue between the physical and social sciences. 588 Online resource; title from PDF title page (JSTOR, viewed May 5, 2017). 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 650 0 Food supply.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050339 650 0 Food security.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2009007706 650 0 Urban agriculture.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85141304 650 0 Sustainable agriculture.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh87004216 650 7 Food supply.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/931196 650 7 Food security.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1748879 650 7 Urban agriculture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1162356 650 7 Sustainable agriculture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1139712 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z191130707X|z9781911307075 |w(OCoLC)957133186 856 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/j.ctt1j1vzc5 |zOnline eBook.
