Las transiciones hacia la sostenibilidad como procesos de final abierto: Dinamización Local Agroecológica con horticultores convencionales de l’Horta de València
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
En los últimos años la reflexión científica acerca de las transiciones hacia la sostenibilidad en el sistema agroalimentario ha recibido una atención creciente, y se han desarrollado aproximaciones en distintos contextos y escalas territoriales. Sin embargo, las posibles trayectorias de transición emprendidas desde situaciones y actores convencionales han sido menos estudiadas. El presente artículo analiza tres estudios de caso en los que se ha aplicado la metodología de la Dinamización Local Agroecológica para impulsar transiciones hacia la sostenibilidad en grupos de agricultores convencionales de regadío en el término municipal de València. La discusión aporta reflexiones empíricas relevantes en aspectos hasta ahora poco desarrollados, como son la dialéctica entre las visiones deterministas y las de final abierto en torno a las trayectorias y contenidos específicos de cada proceso de transición; la naturaleza y rasgos del sujeto de la transición; o el papel del enfoque agroecológico en la conceptualización de las transiciones hacia la sostenibilidad de los sistemas alimentarios. El artículo señala la importancia del trabajo desde enfoques no-deterministas para aprehender situaciones complejas, y la necesidad de profundizar en el análisis de los sujetos de las transiciones hacia la sostenibilidad agroalimentaria en el desarrollo de marcos metodológicos adaptados a cada perfil concreto.
