Call
for papers
The European Research Group SYAL, the Nordic
Association of Agricultural Scientists (NJF) and Södertörn University welcomes
you to propose sessions and papers for the 7th biannual world conference on
localized agri-food systems. The congress will be organized by Södertörn
University and held in Stockholm the 8-10 of May 2016.
Rationale
During the
last decades, Localized agri-food systems (SYAL) have become increasingly
important as tools for farmers, rural firms and consumers to meet market
challenges and satisfy the rising demand for “food with a farmers face”. The
potential contribution of localized agri-food systems to rural development by
promoting economic development, social cohesion and counter-acting the
demographic impact of agricultural modernization has also increased their
political relevance. Previous research has addressed various aspects of the
relationship between SYAL and geographical indications, as well as territorial,
organizational and cultural issues, but there are still many unanswered
questions and theoretical gaps to fill.
We welcome all
topics related to localized agri-food systems, Alternative Agro-food Networks,
short food chains and the new rurality.
