ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the economic practices of food sovereignty collectives in the province of Asturias in the north of Spain. It focuses on Gibson-Graham's concept of community economy, and in particular her ethical coordinates, to unpack the collectives' diverse economic practices. The chapter examines how a framework to navigate the terrain of non-capitalist practices allows the researcher to uncover the multiple and diverse moments that foreground interdependence and communality. The Asturian food sovereignty collectives are guided by ethics such as mutual aid, horizontal decision-making processes and agroecology farming practices. The chapter argues that by identifying the key moments of ethical decision making we are able to understand how the Austrian food sovereignty collectives are resocialising and repoliticising their economic practices. The chapter discusses the politics of possibility in its commitment to non-capitalist economies. For the food sovereignty movement, the ethical economic practices are the basis of a non-capitalist economy.
