Mundane resistance practices within the REKO local food system
| Socio-material elements | Resisting facelessness | Resisting carelessness |
|---|---|---|
| Core of resistance | Mass food production that distorts the power relations of the agro-food system | Unethical food consumption that increases harmful consequences to the people and nature |
| Procedures (explicit rules, principles and instructions) | Regarding Finnish political directives and bureaucracy too rigid to enable small food producers to develop their business | Regarding the conventional agro-food system as dismissing the principles of ethical food consumption |
| Understandings (skills and projects, as well as know-how) | Knowing how to change the conventional agro-food system to make it more socially just | Knowing how to carry out ethical food consumption practices in daily lives |
| Engagements (emotionally charged ends and purposes) | A strong will to support local farmers; negative emotions connected to visible brand names, bonus systems and commercialisation | A strong will to be identified as an ethical consumer |
