Abstract

MOYANO-FERNANDEZ, Cristian. Feed us freely or equally? Solidarity and identity. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2018, n.42, pp.89-104. ISSN 1886-5887.

Our food autonomy is fragmented by the social pressure of meat industry, along with increased social inequalities. Distributive and counterfactual theories of justice seem insufficient to extend our ethical and political duties beyond our limited collective identities. However, as it will try to show, neither promote this kind of justice nor understand solidarity and identity as excluding antinomies are ideas that allow us to adequately address global problems such as malnutrition. Overcoming these conceptual anchors can lead us to propose a more sustainable food model than the current one. And it is suggested that one of the most successful actions to improve this situation is practicing an invisible solidarity.

Keywords : food autonomy; identity; ex-ante responsability; recognition; universality; invisible solidarity.
