Agroecological Transitions, Between Determinist and Open-Ended Visions.

This book explores relationships to change in agroecological transitions, based on two contrasting and ideal-typical stances, the determinist perspective and the open-ended perspective.at different scales such as agricultural systems, food systems, policy instruments..., thus reinforcing the potenti...
