            <abstract xml:lang="en">
              <p>This paper examines how small farmers and landless rural workers have developed new modes of food activism at the transnational level. It explores in particular how the international peasant movement La Vía  Campesina  advocates  and  seeks  to  build  –  through  the  concept  of  the  “food sovereignty”  –  an alternative frame for food production and distribution enabling communities and people to determine at the local/national level their own food systems. Based on a multi-sited fieldwork including participant observations and interviews with organizations’ members from three different countries involved in La Vía Campesina (France, Brazil and India), my study analyses the various and unstable definitions of the concept of “food sovereignty” in the movement.  It examines the process of adding new meanings to its definition  according  to  its  circulation  across  different  scales  and  specific  cultural  and  geographical contexts, its attempted legal translations, and its local reconfigurations in sometimes nationalistic and protectionist ways. The aim is first to show how the demand for “food sovereignty” has emerged at the international level so as to reframe politically global food relations and compete with a more technical response to world hunger promoted by global institutions - the notion of “food security”. The paper thentraces  the  various  strategies  used  by  La  Vía  Campesina’s  activists  to  legitimize  and  promote  their cause, trying to make small-scale farmers “visible” – both in international and national public arenas – and recognized as those assuming a leading role in food production throughout the world. Finally, it addresses the way the food sovereignty framework catalyzes social mobilization across borders by constituting  transnational  interests  and  provides  to  marginalized  social  agents  in  the  countryside  a conceptual frame for making sense of the process of dispossession from the means of production they have been undergoing since the early 1980s.</p>
