Abstract
HEREDIA HERNANDEZ, Daniela and HERNANDEZ MORENO, María del Carmen. Resistance to Agroecological Transition in Mexico. Región y sociedad [online]. 2022, vol.34, e1581. Epub June 01, 2023. ISSN 2448-4849. https://doi.org/10.22198/rys2022/34/1581.
Objective: to demonstrate the theoretical and epistemological gap about the resistance to the agroecological transition, and to propose a model for its analysis. Methodology: an extensive review was carried out in databases of indexed journals, using the following search words, both in Spanish and English: “resistance” + “agroecology”, + (“initiative”, “intervention”, “difficulty”). Results: the null treatment of the subject in the scientific literature is confirmed, and a multidimensional and multi-scale analysis model is proposed. Value: incorporating the subject of resistance to the agroecological transition into the analysis and into the proposals for it, and to show, in epistemological terms, the dispute around two different agri-food paradigms. Limitations: the proposed analysis model requires empirical feedback with field research. Conclusion: recognizing and identifying resistance to the agroecological transition opens the way for the development and implementation of counter-hegemonic strategies with greater socio-environmental impact.
