Structured approach to alternative food initiatives: the case of local food movement in Lithuania

Abstract 

This paper aims to identify whether alternative food initiatives (AFIs) are part of a broader local food movement (LFM) in Lithuania. It presents an attempt to use new social movement (NSM) theory as an analytic framework for a more structured analysis of AFIs development.
