Sovranità alimentare e diritto al cibo. Costituzionalizzazione e comparazione

The book analytically targets the relational plot that takes place between law and food, favoring a dual interpretation key, ideally connected to two absolutely and closely interconnected themes: that of the right to food and that of food sovereignty, framed in their public law dimension and compared. The volume consists of two parts, distinct and dialoguing, where the first, starting from the exegesis of the main international documents and constitutional texts that deal with the right to food, with particular attention to the new Latin American constitutionalism, proposes a profound reflection on the often conflicting relationship between food sovereignty and neo-liberalism. In a consequential perspective, the second part of the text follows, centered on the theoretical paradigm of food sovereignty, understood as the right of States (or, more generally, of communities) to determine their own food policy, with particular reference to the legal circulation of the model and the recognition, at the constitutional level, of a right to have rights over food
