RADICAL FOOD GEOGRAPHIES

Hammelman, C., Levkoe, C., and **Reynolds, K**. 2024. *Radical Food Geographies: Power, Knowledge and Resistance*. Bristol University Press, *Food & Society: New Directions* series. UK.
Publisher description: This collection presents critical and action-oriented approaches to addressing food systems challenges across places, spaces, and scales. With case studies from around the globe, Radical Food Geographies explores interconnections between power structures and the social and ecological dynamics that bring food from the land and water to our plates. Through themes of scale, spatial imaginaries, and human and more-than-human relationships, the authors explore ongoing efforts to co-construct more equitable and sustainable food systems for all.
Advancing a radical food geographies praxis, the book reveals multiple forms of resistance and resurgence, and offers examples of co-creating food systems transformation through scholarship, action, and geography.

Reynolds and Cohen - BEYOND THE KALE COVER copy.jpg — BEYOND THE KALE

**Reynolds, K.** and Cohen, N. 2016. *Beyond the Kale: Urban Agriculture and Social Justice Activism in New York City.* University of Georgia Press, Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation series.
Publisher description: “Urban agriculture is increasingly considered an important part of creating just and sustainable cities. Yet the benefits that many people attribute to urban agriculture—fresh food, green space, educational opportunities—can mask structural inequities,thereby making political transformation harder to achieve. Realizing social and environmental justice requires moving beyond food production to address deeper issues such as structural racism, gender inequity, and economic disparities. Beyond the Kale *argues that urban agricultural projects focused explicitly on dismantling oppressive systems have the greatest potential to achieve substantive social change.”*

INEGALITES ET RAPPORTS DE POUVOIR EN VILLE

Darly, S. et **Reynolds, K.** (Equal authorship) 2023. "Produire des aliments en ville/Politiser l’alimentation en contexte néolibéral. Montée en puissance de l’agriculture urbaine commerciale et nouvelle question agraire à Paris et New York à la fin des années 2010.” *Inégalités et Rapports de Pouvoir en Ville: Actualité de la critique urbaine.* Clerval, A., Gardesse, C. et Rivière, J. eds.
Description de la maison de presse : “Depuis le milieu des années 2000, la question de la dimension spatiale des rapports sociaux, et plus spécifiquement des inégalités sociales, des rapports de pouvoir ou de domination, semble de plus en plus investie dans le champ des études urbaines, en géographie mais aussi en sociologie, en urbanisme, en science politique. Issu d’un colloque académique qui avait pour ambition de faire dialoguer les différentes approches critiques développées dans ces disciplines, cet ouvrage rassemble des contributions portant essentiellement sur les mondes urbains, majoritairement en France, mais avec des éclairages en provenance des États-Unis et d’Amérique du Sud. L’ouvrage reflète la diversité des approches critiques de la ville, tant dans les objets (gentrification, invisibilisation des classes populaires, écologisation des politiques publiques, agriculture urbaine...), les terrains, les méthodes de recherche et le cadre théorique mobilisé (géographie radicale néomarxiste, approches féministes intersectionnelles, etc). À travers ces angles de recherche, ce livre donne à voir l’actualité du développement inégal de la ville, des logiques ségrégatives dans la production urbaine et les enjeux écologiques de cette production. Il contribue aussi à poursuivre et renouveler l’analyse critique des politiques urbaines.”
Available from ÉDITIONS L'ŒIL D'OR or Amazon.

MILITANTISMES ET POTAGERS

**Reynolds, K.** 2021. “Construire la justice sociale par l’éducation à l’agriculture urbaine: L’exemple de la Farm School NYC.” Septenrion Presses Universitaires, Environment and Society series.
Description de la maison de presse : “Les « potagers », au sens large de cultures alimentaires mises en œuvre par des citoyens, figurent dans une grande variété de mouvements, d’initiatives et de mobilisations citoyennes, au caractère contestataire plus ou moins affirmé. Débordant aujourd’hui largement le cadre d’usages privés au sein de l’économie domestique, potagers et agricultures urbaines symbolisent la réinvention du quotidien et des modes de subsistance dans les villes. On peut y voir également une re-politisation de l’alimentation et des approvisionnements urbains. L’institutionnalisation de ces mouvements pose toutefois question : lorsque les gouvernements des villes s’en saisissent, est-ce pour favoriser l’écologisation des modes de vie ou de nouvelles modalités du contrôle social ? Cet ouvrage s’attache à rendre compte de la multiplicité des formes de militantisme qui recourent aux cultures nourricières, en soutenant l’idée que se jouent, dans ces rapports d’opposition plus ou moins marqués, des « conflits d’urbanité » et des enjeux démocratiques et sociaux plus larges.”
Available from Open Edition Books or Amazon.
