Abstract
En este artículo, se examinan los agrocombustibles bajo el contexto de la crisis mundial del
precio de los alimentos, y la propuesta de “soberanía alimentaria” para enfrentar la crisis. Se examinan
las causas de la crisis tanto a corto como a largo plazo, y aunque actualmente los agrocombustibles
no son un factor causal principal, claramente no son convenientes en esta crisis. Se
afirma que la soberanía alimentaria, incluyendo una moratoria en los agrocombustibles, ofrecen
la mejor opción para manejar la crisis.
Abstract: In this article, agrofuels are examined in the context of the world food price crisis and the “food sovereignty” proposal for addressing the crisis. Both short- and long-term causes of the crisis are examined, and while agrofuels are presently not a prime causal factor they are clearly contraindicated by the crisis. Food sovereignty, including a moratorium on agrofuels, is argued to offer the best option for managing the crisis.
