Globalization, Dispossession, and Subaltern Social Movement (SSM) Learning in the South

  • Chapter
Global Perspectives on Adult Education

Abstract

No agrarian reform is acceptable that is based only on land redistribution. We believe that the new agrarian reform must include a cosmic vision of the territories of communities of peasants, the landless, indigenous peoples, rural workers, fisherfolk, nomadic pastoralists, tribal, afro-descendents, ethnic minorities, and displaced peoples, who base their work on the production of food and who maintain a relationship of respect and harmony with Mother Earth and the oceans. (Statement of the International Planning Committee on Food Sovereignty, cited in Via Campesina, 2006)
