Sustainable Rural Development: The contradictions and possibilities of Agroecology and Solidarity Economy Contributions (original) (raw)

This article is a reflection on sustainable development, from a rural and local perspective. The text is presented as a counterpoint to the logic of globalization, according to which it is possible under the hegemony of capitalism to successfully undertake sustainable development on a world scale.
