Abstract

This article places itself within a debate that has developed over the past few years around alternative food systems. By combining insights from Alternative Food Networks (AFNs) literature, among the contemporary economics and social crisis, this paper would show how AFNs are evolving in the Global World. It will be displayed how - and in which way - the economic crisis has been shaping AFNs initiatives, which seem to be more developed after 2008, in both Global North and Global South. To reach these goals, data collected in two different contexts – Italy and Brazil - will be compared as follows: firstly, it will be presented the diachronic evolution of AFNs initiatives for each case-study, then, following a qualitative approach, it will be analysed the crisis impact.
