This is another chapter or thread in the evolution of a New Economy

http://www.resilience.org/stories/2017-03-09/what-would-a-
community-owned-food-system-look-like/

It would be great if we could find a Masters or PhD student keen to
research all threads and glue them together in a Big Picture..with a spine
of principle ribs of policy and organs of all these models that are emerging

This conference is another thread

Perhaps culminating at IPC14 in Argentina ??
