This book offers a critical analysis of the diverse knowledge and knowledge production  processes  through  which ‘alternative  agro-food networks’  can constitute a more plural ‘knowledge economy’. It provides critical sociological and political economic insights that help problematise dominant capitalocentric and technocentric framings of the ‘knowledge (bio)economy’. It will appeal to researchers, practitioners and policy-makers  with  an  interest  in  supporting inclusive research, policy and innovation agendas for sustainability.
