| Sumario: | Agroecology presents itself as an alternative to produce healthy food in the face of the hegemonic agri-food system: industrialized, globalized, and exploitative. It stands out as an alternative system, adopting a new scientific paradigm, based on the science of complexity, which goes against the mechanistic and deterministic thinking of modern science. In this sense, this article is the result of a study that aimed to identify the roles of Agroecology in Sustainable Regional Development processes. Searched a) to describe Agroecology as a production system and as a new paradigm of science, and b) to analyse the roles played by Agroecology in Regional Development processes. The study is justified by the need to promote the debate on the transformation of food production systems due to the unsustainability of the current model that threatens all forms of life on the planet, as well as for the importance of the discussion on Sustainable Regional Development strategies based on the valorisation of the rural environment and the production of healthy food. |
