Popis: To facilitate a transition from conventional agriculture, it is imperative to strengthen the links between politics and agroecology. Agroecology should not be understood only as the result of a series of physical and biological properties, because it also reflects sociocultural relations of power. Therefore, to promote an agroecological transition, individual and collective action is required, which occurs when the actors articulate a common vision. For this reason, the hypothesis of our work is “without collective action, there are no agroecological transitions”. The present investigation analyzes the social, environmental, and productive functioning at the level of communal territories in three Aymara communities: Chigani Alto, Villa Anta, and Cebollullo. In this research, we use the Agroecological Transitions framework of the Institute of Agroecology at the University of Vermont along with the Participatory Action Research approach.
