Food and spatial practices of the Popular and Solidarity Economy: an open catalogue from the Metropolitan Area of Mendoza (Argentina)
In this paper we focus our analysis on the intersection between Popular and Solidarity Economy -a theoretical and empirical field in construction- and critical food studies. We particularly addressed the work of food production and distribution by two organizations –Unión de Trabajadores sin Tierra...

We particularly addressed the work of food production and distribution by two organizations –Unión de Trabajadores sin Tierra and El Arca– whose work is mainly involved with the Metropolitan Area of Mendoza, in terms of recognizing and analyzing their spatial behavior in order to achieve their economic and political objectives. Based on a qualitative approach, the research is based on direct field observation, both participant and non-participant, in each organization.

In this sense, in general, we detected a tension between the search to move towards higher scales of action and the strengthening of the work in the places of origin of each organization. En este escrito centramos nuestro análisis en la intersección entre Economía Popular y Solidaria –campo teórico y práctico en construcción– y los estudios críticos sobre alimentación. Particularmente abordamos el trabajo de producción y distribución de alimentos por parte de dos organizaciones –Unión de Trabajadores Rurales sin Tierra y El Arca– cuya labor se asocia principalmente al Área Metropolitana de Mendoza, en clave de reconocer y analizar su comportamiento espacial en pos de alcanzar los objetivos económicos y políticos que se proponen.Basados en un enfoque cualitativo, la investigación se sostiene en la observación directa en campo, ya sea participante como no participante, en ambas organizaciones, como así también en la realización de entrevistas en profundidad y una indagación detallada en los diferentes medios de difusión de cada una. A partir de esta labor identificamos y describimos una serie de prácticas espaciales llevadas a cabo para producir y distribuir alimentos. En este sentido, de forma general, detectamos una tensión entre la búsqueda por avanzar hacia escalas superiores de acción y el fortalecimiento del trabajo en los lugares de origen de cada organización.

In this paper we focus our analysis on the intersection between Popular and Solidarity Economy -a theoretical and empirical field in construction- and critical food studies. We particularly addressed the work of food production and distribution by two organizations –Unión de Trabajadores sin Tierra and El Arca– whose work is mainly involved with the Metropolitan Area of Mendoza, in terms of recognizing and analyzing their spatial behavior in order to achieve their economic and political objectives. Based on a qualitative approach, the research is based on direct field observation, both participant and non-participant, in each organization. From this work we identified and described a number of spatial practices carried out to produce and distribute food. In this sense, in general, we detected a tension between the search to move towards higher scales of action and the strengthening of the work in the places of origin of each organization. |
