description The book Political Theory of Food was written by Leonardo Rossi, using as a basis the results achieved within the framework of his doctoral thesis in Political Science. The author has a degree in Social Communication and a member of the Southern Political Ecology Research Collective (IRES-CONICET) of Catamarca in which he registers his research and activism activities. The centrality of the work is to address the ontological-political implications of the link that is woven between human communities, territories and food based on epistemological debates derived from the field of Latin American political ecology. The critical theory outlined here constitutes a substantial epistemic-political commitment (Rossi, 2023) that emerges from the meticulous theoretical, historical and conceptual investigation that the author makes of the human agri-food plot. To do this, it tracks and breaks down those milestones in the planet's food geopolitics that led us to the threshold of the Capitalocene. Likewise, in a contrastive sense, Rossi proposes to unravel a cartography of hope by examining agroecological experiences that are woven in the provinces of Córdoba and Catamarca - territories surrounded by extractive devastation -, which aim to cultivate plots of agri-food communality. For the author, it is precisely these ontological designs, based on practices of political production of the common, that offer concrete clues to retrace the deep ecological-civilizational crisis that we are going through. As Machado Aráoz describes in the prologue, this work invites us not to passively contemplate the apocalyptic course of agribusiness, but rather “to know how to look/feel and learn to care for the agrocultural practices that subsist in the margins and the counterhegemonic soils that still cultivate communality and produce the food that nourishes the horizons of other possible futures.”ecology, global agri-food model, agri-food communality.

El libro Teoría Política de la Comida fue escrito por Leonardo Rossi, utilizando como base los resultados alcanzados en el marco de su tesis doctoral en Ciencias Políticas. El autor es Licenciado en Comunicación Social y miembro del Colectivo de Investigación de Ecología Política del Sur (IRES-CONICET) de Catamarca en el que inscribe sus actividades de investigación y militancia. La centralidad del trabajo es abordar las implicancias ontológico-políticas del vínculo que se teje entre las comunidades humanas, los territorios y los alimentos a partir de debates epistemológicos derivados del campo de la ecología política latinoamericana. La teoría crítica aquí esbozada, se constituye en una sustancial apuesta epistémico-política (Rossi, 2023) que emerge de la minuciosa indagación de tipo teórica, histórica y conceptual que hace el autor sobre la trama agroalimentaria humana. Para ello, rastrea y desglosa aquellos hitos de la geopolítica alimentaria del planeta que nos condujo hasta los umbrales del Capitaloceno. Asimismo, en un sentido contrastivo, Rossi propone desentrañar una cartografía de la esperanza examinando experiencias agroecológicas que se tejen en las provincias de Córdoba y Catamarca -territorios ceñidos por la devastación extractivista-, que apuestan a cultivar tramas de comunalidad agroalimentaria. Para el autor, son precisamente estos diseños ontológicos, basadas en prácticas de producción política de lo común, las que ofrecen pistas concretas para desandar la profunda crisis ecológico-civilizatoria que atravesamos. Tal como describe Machado Aráoz en el prólogo, este trabajo invita a no contemplar pasivamente el derrotero apocalíptico del agronegocio, sino más bien “a saber mirar/sentir y aprender a cuidar las prácticas agroculturales que subsisten en los márgenes y los suelos contrahegemónicos que todavía cultivan la comunalidad y producen el alimento que nutre los horizontes de otros futuros posibles”. O livro Teoría Política de la Comida (Teoria Política da Comida) foi escrito por Leonardo Rossi, com base nos resultados de sua tese de doutorado em Ciência Política. O autor é formado em Comunicação Social e é membro do Colectivo de Investigación de Ecología Política del Sur (IRES-CONICET) em Catamarca, onde realiza suas pesquisas e ativismo. O foco do artigo é abordar as implicações ontológico-políticas do vínculo entre comunidades humanas, territórios e alimentos com base em debates epistemológicos derivados do campo da ecologia política latino-americana. A teoria crítica delineada aqui constitui um desafio epistêmico-político substancial (Rossi, 2023) que emerge da meticulosa investigação teórica, histórica e conceitual do autor sobre a rede agroalimentar humana. Para isso, ele traça e detalha os marcos da geopolítica alimentar do planeta que nos levaram ao limiar do Capitaloceno. Da mesma forma, em um sentido contrastivo, Rossi se propõe a desvendar uma cartografia da esperança, examinando as experiências agroecológicas que são tecidas nas províncias de Córdoba e Catamarca - territórios que foram cercados pela devastação extrativista -, que estão comprometidas com o cultivo de redes comunitárias agroalimentares. Para o autor, são precisamente esses projetos ontológicos, baseados em práticas de produção política dos bens comuns, que oferecem pistas concretas para desvendar a profunda crise ecológico-civilizacional pela qual estamos passando. Como Machado Aráoz descreve no prólogo, esta obra nos convida a não contemplar passivamente o curso apocalíptico do agronegócio, mas sim a "saber ver/sentir e aprender a cuidar das práticas agroculturais que subsistem nas margens e dos solos contra-hegemônicos que ainda cultivam a comunalidade e produzem os alimentos que nutrem os horizontes de outros futuros possíveis".
