Call for Papers: Gleaning

Le glanage: est-ce une position politique? une tradition? un moyen d’atténuer l¹insécurité alimentaire? Est-ce légal comme pratique?

CuiZine sollicite aussi des études sur l¹agriculture urbaine: jardins communautaires, terrasses-jardins, déserts alimentaires, paysagisme, élevage urbain. Quels sont les théories, dialogues, et initiatives éclairant l’agriculture urbaine?
Merci d’envoyer un résumé de 250 mots ainsi qu’un court CV à cuizine.info@mcgill.ca avant le 20 Février 2013. Les oeuvres de fiction, entrevues et articles sur des sujets connexes sont aussi les bienvenus.
