“…Yet much ambiguity and even contradiction surrounds the movement's position on international trade; what kind of trade would be acceptable in a food sovereign society remains unclear (Burnett & Murphy, 2014;Edelman et al, 2014). An important question that arises is how to deal with the millions of smallholders currently engaged in export production, some of whom do not necessarily want to exit global markets in favour of local markets (Burnett & Murphy, 2014;Finan, 2007;Soper, 2016;Vorley, Del Pozo-Vergnes, & Barnett, 2012). A group of scholars are thus calling on the FSM to reconsider their stance on international trade and extend the food sovereignty principle to include small-scale farmers' choices to invest in the markets they value (Burnett & Murphy, 2014;Jansen, 2014;Ros-Tonen, van Leynseele, Laven, & Sunderland, 2015;Soper, 2016).…”

“…Although there is broad consensus among critical agrarian scholars on the adverse effects of globalized food systems on peasant agriculture, the ideological position of the FSM has come under scrutiny for its partial position on trade (Burnett & Murphy, ). Systemic approaches to “food empires” or “agro‐food systems” have obscured the way smallholders sometimes actively and willingly engage with global markets (Castellanos‐Navarrette & Jansen, ; Soper, ). More generally, the FSM and related agro‐ecology alternatives insist on the contradiction between “external forces” of corporate food systems and peasant farming as “capital's other” (Bernstein, , p. 642; see also Agarwal, ).…”

“…More farmers are continuously incorporating the new productive logic and new technologies. There are researchers who understand that the full insertion of family farmers into the capitalist economy is more effective in combating poverty than protecting traditional ways of life (Soper, 2016). If these changes result only from farmers' autonomous decisions, there would be no opposition to this thesis.…”

“…The incorporation of many family farmers -also indigenous communities -to the market has justified the defense of global market as the best way to improve their social and economic condition (Soper, 2016). However, local markets and proximity between producers and consumers are trends that are part of a major global movement to reintegrate poor farmers into society.…”

“…A este respecto el estudio de (Soper, 2016) refleja un interés opuesto a la proliferación de los CCC. Partiendo de 8 meses de observación en el campo andino y de 85 entrevistas con campesinos indígenas, el trabajo de (Soper, 2016) concluye que los mercados de exportación en este tipo de países, son considerados más justos por los productores, que los mercados locales. Los campesinos indígenas en este estudio prefieren el comercio de exportación porque ofrece un medio de vida más estable y viable.…”
