Description
Summary:The relationship between housing justice movements and the practice and politics of agroecology and feminist political ecology shares many features. Recent scholarship has increasingly addressed agrifood and housing justice claims in the Global South (Siebert, 2023; Motta, 2021; Motta & Teixeira, 2018). For urban researchers, this growing body of work presents a range of new theoretical ques- tions and challenges. While a robust critical literature has significantly advanced our understanding of housing in various fields—including social policy, human and social geography, politics, sociology, and feminism—it has been less effective in analyzing the role of ecological practices in securing adequate housing and home lives. This gap partly reflects an underexplored critical perspective: the intersection between agroecology and food sovereignty claims.
