This lecture series will examine the emergence of the concept of food sovereignty in international law, leading up to its formal recognition through the 2018 adoption of the Declaration on the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas. It will then assess the impact of the discourse on food sovereignty on recent attempts to overhaul the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy in connection with the European Green Deal, through the adoption—as part of that Green Deal—of a “farm-to-table” food strategy.
