TERRITORY, AGROECOLOGY AND FOOD SOVEREIGNTY: MEANINGS AND REPERCUSSIONS UNDER THE DECOLONIAL AEGIS

This paper aims to reflect on how the concept of science and, consequently, scientific development has changed over time, adapting to changes in the environment and how scientific knowledge (de)constructs itself and adapts to new paradigms. In the context of these discussions, we discuss territory, territorialities, agroecology, and their repercussions on food sovereignty from a decolonial approach. Methodologically, this is a qualitative theoretical study based on a literature review. The decolonial aegis allows us to analyze the repercussions and meanings of agroecology in territories, territorialities, and food sovereignty as resistance movements against a dominant and hegemonic structure that imposes ways of life, routines, production techniques, and consumption habits to the detriment of traditional, heterogeneous, local and unique knowledge.
