Abstract
The article aims to explore the link between commodification of nature and
commodification of food. The latter is in fact one of the most negative and
controversial aspects of nature commodification. The examination of food
commodification represents fertile ground for investigating the relationship
between humans and nature. In this context, food sovereignty provides a
useful paradigm that not only serves as an alternative to the current food
regime, but also allows for the experiencing a different kind of
relationship between humans and nature. Food sovereignty represents a unique
social movement in which community, political, and cultural rights are
intertwined with the issue of food. Through its multidisciplinary approach
and its strongly ethical component, food sovereignty constitutes an
opportunity in order to contrast the progressive commodification of nature
and of the environment.
