| Popis: | This paper focuses on urban food systems as an approach for analyzing food as part of the city region by also considering the underlying spatial structures. Taking a systemic perspective, the paper identifies spatialized urban food system components and their linkages and interactions with the aim of fostering integrated and multidimensional intervention approaches for urbanizing regions. This paper contributes to an understanding of the relation between the urban system and the food system focusing on the spatial dimension of urban food systems. It illustrates geographies of urban food systems. The first part poses the questions: How is an urban food system described? How do the components relate and manifest? A systemic approach helps to describe connections between components with regard to related places, practices and actors: What are the drivers that transform food systems toward functioning systems that produce healthy food, provide income for (urban) farmers, accessibility to food for all ... |
