European transitions towards a corporate-environmental food regime: Agroecological incorporation or contestation?
The 'food regime' concept helps to analyse potential transitions beyond the agro-industrial regime which has been globally dominant since the 1970s. As its multiple crises generate alternative production methods and products, some have been incorporated into a nascent 'corporate-environmental food regime'. This nascent regime is illustrated here by two agendas prominent in Europe - 'bioeconomy' (Life Sciences) and 'sustainable intensification' (neoproductivism). As a significant difference, the prevalent 'bioeconomy' agenda marginalises agroecological practices, while 'sustainable intensification' selectively incorporates such practices within a broader toolkit including biotech.
