Sumario:The internationalization of food marketing circuits, the increasing industrialization of agriculture, and the globalization of food chains have brought about structural transformations that directly affect local food systems. These transformations manifest in various forms of malnutrition, biodiversity loss, erosion of food-related cultural practices, and the detachment of food production and consumption from territorial contexts. This article examines food proximity as an analytical category to describe and understand experiences aimed at reconstructing the links between people, territories, and food systems from a socio-ecological perspective. In this framework, it proposes a reinterpretation of the human right to food (HRtF) through its relational dimension, articulating the concept of food adequacy across three dimensions: existential, nutritional, and relational. Finally, it analyzes the effects of the commodification of essential resources —such as land, water, seeds, and knowledge— on the material and symbolic relationships that sustain food systems, producing conditions of estrangement that undermine the effective realization of the HRtF in its relational aspect. In this context, the article explores criteria and experiences that may guide transitions toward fairer, more sustainable, and territorially grounded forms of food organization, where proximity emerges as a structuring principle of situated and ecosystemically sensitive practices.
