The contributions enquire into very different struggles and sites of food sovereignty exploring the meanings of ‘the right to define own food and agricultural systems’, as well as the plural ‘sovereignties’ of food related to the multiple actors, topics, understandings and practices of food sovereignty Three articles in this issue discuss different struggles for what we may broadly call food sovereignty based on empirical studies into settings as diverse as a remote peas- ant community in Indonesia, soup-pot restaurants in Phnom Pen, and a network of activists in the north of Thailand promoting alternative forms of agriculture.	cache/aseas-2613.pdf	txt/aseas-2613.txt
