“…An ecological perspective -rather than a more often used policy-making cycle -is useful, as there was no articulated intent to include this policy area within the dietary guidelines. Table 1 matches Ritchie and Spencer's (21) categories of applied policy research to research concepts that were derived from policy analysis literature (22) . As the Guidelines were released only recently, the analysis emphasizes the first two categories, while evaluative and strategic components are only surmised.…”

“…Seed et al 58 sostienen que en la Columbia Británica las prácticas convergen y divergen desde la noción de la seguridad alimentaria comunitaria que ha surgido como un enfoque en Norteamérica, destacando la ambivalencia entre los actores interesados en abordar la inseguridad alimentaria con énfasis en la salud pública como motor de la seguridad alimentaria y los actores de la sociedad civil interesados en la democracia alimentaria. Asimismo, la democratización del sistema agroalimentario tiene que ver con el establecimiento de coaliciones entre diversos grupos de interés 59 .…”

Las políticas alimentarias han cobrado especial interés, a raíz de la crisis alimentaria mundial de 2008 y el impulso de los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio; dando lugar a enfoques desde diversas orientaciones disciplinarias. Esta revisión temática tiene como objetivo describir los principales enfoques teóricos y metodológicos de políticas, elaborados desde las perspectivas de la seguridad alimentaria y soberanía alimentaria. Se realizó una búsqueda en bases de datos para publicaciones académicas entre 2000 y 2013. De 2.699 publicaciones, se seleccionaron 320 artículos completos. Luego de su lectura para aplicar los criterios de inclusión, se conservaron 55 artículos para el análisis. Se concluye que, frente al predominio de la seguridad alimentaria como orientadora de políticas, emerge la respuesta crítica de la soberanía alimentaria, que debe ser incluida en el diseño y estudio de políticas alimentarias. Éstas son un asunto esencial para el logro de los objetivos de la salud pública. Por tanto, ella debe asumir un rol protagónico, orientador y articulador en dichas políticas.

“…14 The concept of community food security was first used in BC in the Community Nutritionists Council paper "Making the Connection", 6 a document developed to advocate for the inclusion of food security into BC core programs in public health. At the time, the community nutritionists and civil society representatives who wrote the paper were concerned that the use of the term 'food security' was too frequently associated only with household and individual food insufficiency.…”

RESULTS:Public Health was able to advance food security in some ways, such as the adoption of food security as a core public health program. Public Health's leadership role in food security is constrained by a restricted mandate, limited ability to collaborate across a wide range of sectors and levels, as well as internal conflict within Public Health between Food Security and Food Protection programs. CONCLUSIONS:Public Health has a role in advancing food security, but it also faces limitations. As the limitations are primarily systemic and institutional, recommendations to overcome them are not simple but, rather, require movement toward embracing the determinants of health and regulatory pluralism. The results also suggest that the historic role of Public Health in food security remains salient today.KEY WORDS: Food security; public health; population health template; determinants of health; regulatory pluralism La traduction du résumé se trouve à la fin de l'article.
