Anarchism, Food Sovereignty, and Degrowth: Exploring Overlaps and Tensions

This session with Antonio Román-Alcalá and the Agroecology Research-Action Collective (ARC) looks at the intersections, overlaps, and tensions between anarchism, food sovereignty, and degrowth — with some focus on land reform.

The presentation is based on a recent article in the Degrowth Journal but framed to emphasize action, not just theory. After the short talk, participants join a discussion on how to navigate these tensions and build practices that make sense in the so-called U.S. today.

The NYC Anarchist Book Fair has gathered thousands of anarchists, supporters, and curious folks since 2007 on Lenape land, creating space to learn about anarchist traditions, philosophy, praxis, and anti-capitalist struggle.
