It reveals urban living as marked by a soulless ‘convenience.’ The book suggests that international trade policy must connect with local regulations in order to alter the course of urban livelihoods and wellbeing for the urban poor. It demands a fundamental remaking of governance, and calls for new forms of urban citizenship.application/pdfenLOCAL FOOD SYSTEMSINTERNATIONAL TRADE POLICYMUNICIPAL GOVERNANCEREGULATIONFOOD SOVEREIGNTYFOOD SECURITYFOOD SUPPLYCITIESURBAN POLICYURBAN PLANNINGURBAN POVERTYNON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASESDIETSOUTH OF SAHARANORTH OF SAHARABook
